Physics Demonstration Shows- These are proving to be quite popular with the public and a great learning experience of us. See some notes and details on the calendar page.
Group Demo Shows- We do small demo shows for groups by request (for free). We're happy to do it and we have fun doing it. Your group can come to Lock Haven, or we can go on the road and come to where you are.
Field trips- We've been to several research labs. Seen several speakers. Gone starzing, and much much more!!!!
See the calendar page for some examples.
Presentaions- Some semesters we discuss various topics in physics. Each week one person picks a topic in which they are interested and gives a short presentation on what they've read and learned. Usually a lively discussion develops.
Stargazing- We have many telescopes ranging from 6 inch to 12 inch reflectors. We also have many high quality binoculars which are also excellent for night sky viewing. We have had the telescopes out several times looing at such things at the moon, Jupiter, Saturn. We also head to the hills during meteor showers. Please visit out Planetarium Page for a schedule of stargazing evenings.
Campus Activities- The Physics Club participates in several campuswide activities such as the annual Children's Festival, the Club Fairs, and other events.
