The MVHS Science Club meets each week to investigate and explore the science of space (and other cool science, too).
We will be alternating "activity" meetings with "research" meetings. Activity meetings will explore a wide range of science topics using hands-on activities to get students thinking. Then at research meetings, students have the opportunity to engage in genuine scientific research as part of the Pulsar Search Collaboratory (PSC), associated with the Green Bank Observatory, to help search the skies for pulsars! We will also be exploring other research opportunities, if pulsars are not what excite you.
Science Club is a partnership the with Kenyon College physics department. The faculty and students from Kenyon help us to plan and host a variety of opportunities including visits to Miller Observatory, building robots, solar telescope viewing, and so much more. We are endlessly grateful to their expertise and funding!
