Happy #PaperAirplaneDay Every #STEM project has it's own special #vocabulary. Have your #Students see if they can match the performance of their creation with these suggested words. #STEMeducation #Physics #IsaacNewton

#DYK The #space shuttle landed in a 19 degree glideslope? It literally fell out of the sky with no way to abort a landing. #Commanders practiced 800-1000 landings in this airborne simulator. You can climb aboard at Texas Air and Space Museum in Amarillo. texasairandspacemuseum.org/nasa-shuttle-t…

Roadrunner comes every evening for a dirt bath then flies into palm tree for bed. That flight is about as much as they can do despite large wings. #pronouns unknown as markings do not differ. #birds #Arizona #ornithology #birdwatching #FLIGHT

A post of #FunFacts in #sciencenews is overdue. We'll probably never fully correct this bit of #Misinformation but we can have #fun trying. Be sure to smile when you correct your friends on this one. #stem #steminformation #Physics #WordOfTheDay #Ghostbusters #

It's Introduce A Girl to Engineering day! Your #1 girl in #Science #Coding #Engineering and #STEMeducation will love Laura Davis' #adventure in little Aiken's Corner as she schools the locals in getting things done. Check out Welcome to Aiken's Corner on Amazon.

#EngineersWeek is ending so a fitting tribute to my introduction to #Engineering calculations is in order. #STEMeducation would do well to note its place in #history. Replaced by electronic handheld scientific calculators in 1967 and 1972, its just a memory now. No pun intended.

Happy #WorldEngineeringDay ! The Davis kids may be just youngsters, but they take #STEM to the limit in little Aiken's Corner. Just ask the local sheriff :-) Check out their #shortstories in Welcome to Aiken's Corner Amazon.

Close, but not quite. Shaded area is 7 units in area while unshaded is 9 units . Adjust "width" of shaded L and you have it.

Wow! Arizona Science Center hit it out of the park. Yesterday's area code 602 promotion packed the house. All the science and fun you could handle for $6.02. A real family event to boot. Mom, pop, the kids, and even the cousins arriving at W7ASC to send their names in Morse code.
