Program Description

Event Details

A basketball is pretty heavy relative to a newspaper. In order for a newspaper to support the weight of a basketball, a newspaper tower needs to be able to withstand the force of gravity that pulls the basketball down. You will design and build a tower that is strong enough to not buckle under the weight of a basketball.

Please note: There are two sessions of this STEM Lab. Please sign up for only ONE.
