Well today we're going to take them through the history of science, in particular the study to do with motion.
So way back to Aristotle, through Galileo, Newton, and Einstein,
and tell them about the scientific discoveries that it took to get us to where we are today.
Welcome to the 2011 Science Extravaganza!
So this event was designed to keep the kids interested in science, keep them enthused,
keep them wanting to go on and study more and learn more.
So I'm going to sit down and do nothing. And to prove that I'm not tricking you guys.
We've pretty much, you know, discovered everything we can on Earth in regards to geography,
and science is the only way that we can discover new things, and there's so many more things
to learn and so many more things to find out about.
The liquid, it takes up a lot less room, and it shrinks.
And as soon as I pull it out, give the liquid some heat, it converts back to a gas.
And now he's fine.
It's one of the few things that can teach us about the future, it can teach us about the past,
it can take you into space, it can take you underground.
When they see the eclipse, they can see stars behind the sun.
If you're curious and you're enthusiastic about what you're doing, then you'll become a good scientist.
If you're always wanting to find out more, you'll be a good scientist.
Should I jump off the building? Or stay where I am?
Do they fall at the same rate still?
Who understands relativity?
Shall we test it?
Study science, it gets better out of high school.
It does. Yeah. Science is great.
A gentle push and it fires up and lands back in the cup.
If you decide to go to uni, or even study more science anywhere, do it for a bit
and if you love it as much as we do you'll never give it up.
If I pull it out and then do that.
And then we'll throw some liquid nitrogen around just for a bit of fun towards the end.
Teach them a bit about heating and cooling.
The temperature is minus one.
Science is pretty cool.
Yeah it's all right.
