Pacific Science Center

Phase I DO-IT Scholars Ellen and Olivia use some of the science equipment at the Pacific Science Center.

The Phase I DO-IT Scholars took a field trip to the Pacific Science Center (PSC). We went to several parts of the building, such as the Boeing IMAX theater, the exhibits, and the laser dome.

Our first stop was the movie theater, where we watched Flight of the Butterflies in 3D. The 3D effect really contributed to the movie experience.

After lunch, we formed several groups to explore the PSC exhibits. The exhibits were interesting and involved all parts of science, from astronomy to zoology. The butterfly house was fun because there were many different kinds of butterflies, and it related to the movie we saw earlier.

Our last activity was the Michael Jackson show in the laser dome. There were lines, shapes, and drawings made out of the light.
