Raising the Big Top in DC
The carnies.
If you attended the USA Science and Engineering Festival in April in Washington, DC, you may have spotted a colorful tent with musical wine glasses, a bed of nails, and a giant smoke cannon. Yes, the physics circus had come to town, thanks to the combined efforts of SPS, Sigma Pi Sigma, the American Physical Society, the American Association of Physics Teachers, and The Optical Society. We had a great time being a part of the 3,000 free, hands-on science activities and 150 stage shows put on at the festival. Thank you to all of the local SPS and Sigma Pi Sigma volunteers who made the booth such a success! Photos by Matthew Payne and Gale Mamatova.
