The FAQs and nothing but
the FAQs
How is it possible to detect the direction of the Earth's magnetic field using a pencil, fishing line, and a magnet? Want to blow out a candle from ten feet away, or trap your most annoying friend using only a garbage bag and a vacuum cleaner? Hardware Science provides hundreds of such activities and projects. Each activity is designed to practice the thinking skills used by all scientists and engineers. Once you know how to think like a scientist, the possibilities are endless! You'll start to see Hardware Science everywhere.
If you're older than 9, you might get a bit more out of it, but there's no "right age" to be a scientist! Younger scientists might require more help from their adult "assistant." And for those of you who are no longer spring chickens, don't worry. Scientists age well.
