Physics is the study of matter — what is it made of? How does it behave? What laws or equations describe it?
From subatomic particles, to the Big Bang, modern physicists study matter at a tremendous range of scales. There's a whole lot of interesting physics at the human scale, too.
Unsure of what the steps of the scientific method are? Not sure how to apply the scientific method? Watch how we use the scientific method to explore the science of popping boba – fun juice filled balls that pop in your mouth. You can find more information about each step of the scientific method at https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/science-fair/steps-of-the-scientific-method?ytid=Xxm_beTs2LU&ytsrc=description

Have you ever wondered what makes a paper plane fly? Some paper planes clearly fly better than others. But why is this? In this activity, you will explore how changing the forces that act on a plane will affect its flight. So, get ready to start folding!
