Here's one for you sports fans out there - Scientific Hockey. Did you know that a hockey player loses an average of 5-8 pounds during a game? Explore the game of hockey, from the molecular make-up of the ice to the shape of the skater's blade. With photos and graphics that teach the laws of mass, velocity, and energy, and determine how much force is generated in a hockey collision. Way cool!
