How do plants grow in space? Can astronauts grow food in a zero-gravity environment? You can do your own experiments right here on Earth to find out! In this science project you will build your own device called a clinostat that rotates seeds so the direction of gravity is constantly changing. You can do experiments to see how this simulated microgravity environment affects seed germination. For written instructions, including a parts list, circuit diagram, and example code, see the Science…
This video shows how to build a model mass driver, also called a coilgun, controlled by an Arduino. Mass drivers could be used to launch payloads into space with electromagnets instead of chemical rockets. There are many variables you can change in your mass driver for a science or engineering project, like the power supply, coil geometry, or drive electronics. Written instructions, including a materials list, circuit diagram, and working example code are available on the Science Buddies…
This video shows what you can do by adding an Arduino to your Science Buddies Bluebot Kit. The Bluebot Kit introduces students to robotics and electronics without requiring a computer or any programming. Adding an Arduino to your kit allows your robot to perform more complex behaviors. Kits (Arduino not included) are available for purchase at https://www.homesciencetools.com/product/bluebot-4-in-1-educational-robotics-kit/?aff=SB1. Instructions for the Bluebot projects, including wiring…
This video provides an overview of the materials and process to build an infinity mirror, a trick mirror that creates the illusion of an infinitely deep tunnel using LEDs. You can build one using simple materials available at a hardware or arts and crafts store: a small cardboard box, a tiny craft mirror, some plexiglass, reflective window film, and LEDs. To view full directions for this science project, see the "Explore Optical Illusions: Build an Infinity Mirror" Project Idea at Science…
