How do engineers solve problems? They use the engineering design process to create the best possible solution. We’ll show you how to do it step-by-step as we prepare to send our eggstronaut on an interplanetary mission. You can find more information about each step of the process at https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/engineering-design-process/engineering-design-process-steps?ytid=fuwGvZ-eOrc&ytsrc=description

On 3 January 2014 the spring tide combined with a south-westerly gale. The tide rarely comes over the grass at this semi-estuarine location, however on this occasion the marshes that are normally grazed by sheep became, just for a few hours, the sea.
Get water to "walk" from one cup to another in this colorful science experiment. Capillary action moves colored water from full to empty cups. For some bonus fun, add dyes to the water and watch the water mix to form whole new colors! Full science activity instructions and a detailed explanation are available at: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/stem-activities/walking-water?ytid=s2Jud7F478I&ytsrc=description
