Impression 5 Science Center is open to the public Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. “We’re proud to be building the most powerful superconducting heavy-ion linear accelerator right here at Michigan State University, and we’re pleased to share with our community how FRIB works and how the research conducted here will positively impact all our lives.” “We’re delighted to be part of this partnership between MSU and Impression 5,” said FRIB Laboratory Director Thomas Glasmacher. Now we get to connect this new exhibit to the amazing advancements in science happening right here in our community.” “The greater Lansing community has shown so much support to the Science Center, which has allowed us to transform our guests’ experiences through additional space and more meaningful interactive exhibits. “Seeing these organizations band together to make this exhibit a reality fulfills a dream we’ve had at Impression 5 since FRIB was first announced,” said Erik Larson, executive director of Impression 5 Science Center. Under construction on campus and operated by MSU, FRIB will enable scientists to make discoveries about the properties of rare isotopes in order to better understand the physics of nuclei, nuclear astrophysics, fundamental interactions and applications for society including medicine, homeland security and industry. MSU is establishing FRIB as a scientific user facility for the Office of Nuclear Physics in the DOE-SC. We ship throughout the US or pick up your order at Impression 5 Science Center in Lansing, MI.

An important aspect of the exhibit is a series of videos that highlight a diverse group of individuals who contribute to the work happening at MSU’s NSCL and FRIB. The 1,500 square-foot interactive exhibit provides a dynamic space for children and families to explore atoms, smash them, create rare isotopes, observe cosmic rays and challenge their understanding of what’s possible through discoveries in nuclear science.

“This is a fun way to kindle family and students’ interest, and we’re thrilled to be a part of the collaboration.” “STEM education - science, technology, engineering and mathematics - is a growing component of many higher education programs and an important foundation for 21st century careers,” said MSU President Samuel L. Impression 5 Science Center opened an interactive science exhibit that is inspired by the positive, life-changing nuclear science research happening now at MSU’s National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) and in the future at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB).įrom atoms and isotopes to cosmic rays, “SMASH: A Nuclear Adventure” encourages children and families to explore the world of nuclear science and the building blocks of the universe in a meaningful and relevant way.
