Saturday Science is a science enrichment program for children and their parents sponsored by Susqueh http://youtu.be/SEdDsY8z_I4

Do you have a child looking to explore the wonderful world of science? Susquehanna University’s Saturday Science program is a great opportunity for children in grades K-8 to discover their inner scientist. These three-hour sessions are held on Saturday mornings 12 times during the academic year and explore numerous science activities to challenge and educate students and their families. (Parents must accompany their children throughout the entire session.)

Hi all. Apologies to having abandoned our FB page over the last few years. A lot of things came to a halt during the pandemic including Saturday Science and any posted updates.
At this time, we still cannot confirm fall 2022 plans with respect to our program. Stay tuned for more information as any news will be posted here now that we have regained access to our page.

Good morning scientists! We hope to see you this morning at our final session of the semester! At this meeting we will continue to explore the science of the moon and other satellites. We’ll talk about exploration and will consider such questions as: robotic rover design, habitability of different moons, habitat design, and problems with communication across great distances. We will explore these and other questions about living thing things. See you soon!
