Little House of Science

For Little Scientists: Our December Science camp is dedicated to Physics. Any elf, flying reindeer or sleigh mechanic hoping to work at Santa’s workshop must have a good grasp of how things move through space and time. Santa’s space engineer elves are hard at work these days! They have caught wind of our plans to build a city on Mars. How on Earth (or Mars, rather) is Santa going to deliver presents there?! Even more urgently, Santa has heard that there is a lonely robot trundling across Mars’ vast deserts doing scientific research. Its name is Curiosity and it hasn’t received a single Christmas present since first landing on Mars on the 6th of August 2012! It has no company and no friends so each year it has to sing happy birthday to itself :’( Let’s see if we can do some of our own research to help Santa and his elves get some presents out there to Curiosity in time for next Christmas. Once we’ve cracked this problem Santa will have no problem sending presents to Mars for future humans (and robots) for years to come! Day One, Monday, 16 Dec 2024: North Pole versus South Pole Glaciers and Icebergs: Sculptors of the Earth's Frozen Frontiers The Scientific Story of two Earth Poles How Penguins Can Teach us about Entropy The Flora and Fauna of Tundra Day Two, Tuesday, 17 Dec 2024: Help build Santa a new sleigh Hot Air Balloons: How Do They Work, and Can Santa lift all the Gifts on a Hot Air Balloon? The Age of Airplanes Jet Propulsion vs Rockets Re-design the Sleigh: Reduce Friction with Hovercrafts Day Three, Wednesday, 18 Dec 2024: Temperature Physics What does Warm and Cold-Blooded mean? How Humans Survive the Cold Biomimicry: What Can We Learn from Arctic Foxes and Polar Bears? Arctic Engineering: The Physics of Inuit Shelters and Tools Day Four, Thursday, 19 Dec 2024: Arctic Wonders: Crystals, Magnets and Light Magnetic Phenomena: The Northern Light Crystals and Arctic: Snowflakes and frost formation The Mysteries of Snowy Owls Who are the Arctic Scientists/ Arctic Oceanography Day Five, Friday, 20 Dec 2024: Discover Antarctica Polaris and Other Giant Stars Ozone Hole and the Atmosphere of Antarctica The Heroic Story of Shackleton and Endurance Water Cycle in the Arctic The Future of Antarctica
