Newton's Corner
Mid-America Science Museum, Hot Springs
Experience Newton’s three Laws of Motion in a variety of medium at Newton's Corner, and see how they relate to real world situations in your life! In this exhibit, you will compare and contrast Newton’s three laws of motion and explain how Newton’s laws apply to real world situations (e.g., sports, transportation). Investigate the relationship between force and motion, force and mass, and force and direction while recognizing different types of forces such as gravity, friction and magnetic forces.

Nanotechology: What's the Big Deal?
Museum of Discovery, Little Rock
“Nanotechnology: What’s the Big Deal?” introduces facts and dispels myths about the important field of nanoscience. At the ultra-tiny nanoscale, common materials can behave in unusual ways. Scientists are working to understand this phenomenon and how it applies to our lives. In this exhibit you will see what a billion (and one-billionth) of something looks like. You can manipulate the size of a quantum dot to see its strange changing properties. You will also watch as floating molecules move themselves into an orderly pattern. These are just some of the amazing facts you will learn about nanotechnology.
