How better to mark National Engineers Week than with some real-life engineers? This Thursday, Friday and Saturday, The Kentucky Science Center is showing its support for how engineers affect and improve all aspects of our lives and digging into the details. Kids and adults who are interested in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) will have an opportunity to Skype with a NASA scientist, and discover how rockets take flight, among other activities.
Engineers from Lexmark, C&I Engineering, Stantec, Donan Engineering, Grote Industries, the University of Louisville and others will be on hand to answer questions about engineering and the work they do.
Admission for the National Engineers Week activities is included with general admission to the Science Center. Also at the Science Center right now is the remodeled REUSEapalooza exhibit on food, water, land and energy sustainability.
