Stop by Los Alamos National Laboratory’s Bradbury Science Museum April 3-12 and learn about and take part in NanoDays.
NanoDays is a nationwide festival of educational programs about nanoscale science and engineering and its potential impact on the future, at the museum in downtown Los Alamos. NanoDays is free and open to the public.
The Bradbury marks NanoDays 2015 with fun films about nano science, airing at 1 p.m. daily; hands-on tabletop activities; special demonstrations at 11 a.m., and 2 p.m., April 7-9; and The Art of Nanoscience display.
The prefix “nano” means one-billionith. Nanoscale can range in size from a nanometer to a few hundred nanometers. NanoDays is a national campaign, engaging people of all ages in learning about the emerging field of nanoscale science and engineering.
“By combining hands-on activities with presentations on current research [Nano Days] features new and unique learning experiences for both children and adults,” Bradbury Science Museum Director Linda Deck said.
