Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Traveling Science Fair will join Tennessee Tech’s Eclipse Fest and viewing party.
The ORNL Science Fair provides guests of all ages the opportunity to learn more about science and the importance of research being done at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Students enter carnival-style interactive trailers that describe various fields of research and areas of future job opportunities.
The Science Fair will join Tech’s mobile STEM Mobile at the Eclipse Fest as part of the free, science-rich activities planned at the university for the Great American Eclipse on Aug. 21.
Tennessee Tech is a NASA Official Viewing Location for the Great American Eclipse, which will send the moon’s shadow on an arch across North America and cause about two minutes and 30 seconds of daytime darkness in Cookeville. It’s a rare astronomical phenomenon that won’t happen again in Cookeville for another 500 years.
