It Is Rocket Science - Physics

We've all heard the phrase, "it's not rocket science," but in our case, IT IS!

Join our Physics department as they work to discover the secrets of the time-space continuum (and more)...

Physics is the foundation of science. Every other field builds upon its concepts and principles. If you know physics, you know how to model and predict a system. If you can predict a system, you can control it. In other words, physics teaches you how to control the universe!!! Muhahahah.... "ahem", uh, as I was saying;

In this day camp we'll explore some of the many fields of physics, from Newtonian mechanics and the physics of weather systems; to particle physics, neutrinos and the search for dark matter; to astrophysics. We will visit state-of-the art research laboratories, conduct our own experiments, and use what you learn to construct and launch your own rocket!
