Every Wednesday & Friday, the WOW Launches Science Challenges

During these unprecedented and challenging times, the World of Wonders Science Museum continues its mission of offering (virtual) hands-on, science-based exhibits and (online) programs to stimulate discovery for all ages!

We invite you, your family, and your friends to try this first science challenge. Share it on Facebook and Instagram with the hashtag #WOWSci. 
Do you have an idea for a future science lesson or would you like to share a video of your own science challenge? Use the same hashtag #WOWSci and let us know. 

You can also email our Program Director, Jen Young with your ideas!
Now on to today’s science challenge!

Mechanical Engineering Challenge Work like an engineer to create a fling flyer, an airplane you will make, and explore what forces keep it up in the air. When you are finished with this activity, you will have learned about the forces that affect flight as you design, build, and test.
