The Atomic Museum invites middle and high school students interested in science, technology, engineering and math to its next STEM Saturdays event on Saturday, March 4 from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. In partnership with the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS) and the Clark County School District’s Career & Technical Education Department, the March event will include two presentations on chemistry and industrial hygiene.
NNSS employees will conduct the “elephant toothpaste” experiment to teach students about chemical reactions and the importance of wearing proper personal protective equipment (PPE) to prevent hearing loss in hazardous work environments. Lastly, participants will enjoy a complimentary lunch and a free guided tour of the museum’s main gallery.
Registration is complimentary but space is limited. To register, click here.
