Science Is Coming! Support Secret Science Club as We Launch Our 2019 Season
No matter the
season, Secret
Science Club is a place where science rockets into the night and
shines.
This year Secret Science Club has gone
on an amazing, curiosity-fueled ride, presenting public talks on astrophysics, microbiology, brain science, paleontology, robotics, climate
& environmental science, the genome, and more. We want our 2019 season
to be even more awe-inspiring and science-filled!
Please join us in celebrating science as a vital part
of culture & public life and standing up for science as we head
into the future.

It’s a Wonderful (Quantum) Life, Secret Science Club presents Physicist & Author Chad Orzel, WEDNESDAY, December 12, 8PM @ the Bell House, FREE!
Holly Jolly
Physics Finale!
Raise a
glass to all that’s weird and wonderful in our world with Physicist & Author
Chad Orzel at the Secret Science Club’s holiday edition!
Quantum physics is often
thought of as abstract, exotic, and a little bit freaky. While classical
physics gives us sensible laws governing the macroscopic world—why a ball rolls
downhill and how a plane flies—quantum
physics gives us particles that are
actually waves, “spooky” action at a
distance, and Schrodinger’s unlucky
cat. The subatomic world is a shifty, uncertain place. But never fear, physicist Chad Orzel is here to unpack
the quantum weirdness.
At
this holiday edition of the Secret
Science Club, Dr. Orzel jumps off from his new book Breakfast With Einstein to explore the quantum phenomena that
animate our everyday reality. Don’t miss a nanoparticle of this awesome talk!
