Or more like a scientist on a tour of CERN am I right?! Whatever floats your boat. Or more appropriately, whatever powers your hydroelectric waterwheel! Ha!

Okay I’m done.

Our trip to the Boston Museum of science was a very helpful and enlightening experience that gave us a better appreciation and understanding of many energy-related concepts.

To name a few: solar panels and how they function, how to best optimize their efficiency; wind power and how it works and the different types of wind turbines available; hydroelectric technologies and how they function; bio-fuels (even from something as cartoonish as cow manure).

The displays set up were all incredibly informational and helped our group figure out that we were absolutely going to do a presentation and experiment of wind power. The capabilities and showiness of wind really make it an ideal form of green energy for us to showcase.
