OMSH Cave

I am so excited about our cave in the Origins Gallery. I took a friend, her daughter and son through on a sneak preview. They were each amazed they were not in a real cave. I loved hearing their exclamations of delight and cannot wait to share with the public. We are running behind schedule but plan to have a special teacher event when it is ready.

Creating a Precipitate Lab

A precipitate is the resulting solid of a chemical reaction producing the carbonate which forms the building blocks of many cave formations. This lab is a great connection for Physical and Earth Science.
