Labs take science to the schools

October 23, 2006

June Dukowicz, center, of the Bradbury Science Museum, looks on as Los Alamos Middle School students separate hydrogen from water during a science outreach visit to the school last week. Through electrolysis, students were able to break down water into hydrogen and oxygen and use the hydrogen in a fuel cell to power a small fan. Science educators from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado, brought their science outreach program to Northern New Mexico and visited Pojoaque and Los Alamos middle schools. Bradbury Science Museum, part of the Community Programs Office, arranged the local school visits.
