Gulf Coast Exploreum Science Center

Overview:

While this clip promotes a previous exhibit that is no longer at the Exploreum, it does include several experiments that could prove useful in the classroom.  

In this 4 minute news segment we race the heart, have the news anchor hold a real heart and inflate some pig lungs. We also spend a short time playing with a robotic hand. If we can do all of this in 4 minutes, imagine what a day around here must be like.
