On Wednesday we went the library for a science program from the Pacific Science Center. Our scientist, Kate, was fabulous. The program lasted for over an hour and was all about gas, liquids, and solids. I would like to think that I had forgotten all this stuff, but honestly, there may be a slight chance that I never knew what I learned yesterday. The program was fun, but truly educational, too. We now know that liquid nitrogen is -319 degrees and that gases take up 729 times as much room as liquids, among other things. Go figure.



Seriously, the room erupted in noise when Kate performed the trick below. She ate a piece of graham cracker after it came out of the liquid nitrogen.

With Kate
