    Adventure Science Center invites you to join us for a series of informal discussions on current issues in science. Whether tackling how science can solve global problems or help us to understand how the universe works, these gatherings are NOT lectures. They are an opportunity for you to share your opinions, ideas and thoughts with other science lovers and to meet local scientists in a fun, casual setting. So grab a cup of coffee (or other adult beverage) and let's chat!

    Shake, Rattle and Roll December 15 at 7:00pm at Adventure Science Center.

    We are kicking off a three-month series on Forces of Nature. We'll begin in December by welcoming Tennessee State Geologist Ron Zurawski to discuss earthquakes. While we may not think of Tennessee as a hot zone for earthquakes, they do occur (as many on the East Coast recently learned!) in our part of the world. Join what is sure to be a fascinating cafe as we talk about fault lines, probability of "the big one" and how we might prepare for a whole lot of shakin' going on.

    Afterward, the Science Center will offer an opportunity to view Forces of Nature in the Sudekum Planetarium ($6 ticket). The full-dome show takes you up close to volcanoes, hurricanes, earthquakes and tornadoes. You can catch a preview of the show by clicking here.
