The N.C. Science Festival is modeled after similar regional science celebrations in San Diego and Boston but spans from the coast to the mountains and includes programs, lectures, demonstrations, lessons, tours and other fare. Events run through Sept. 26. Among the highlights will be an appearance Sept. 19 by the two stars of "MythBusters," a popular Discovery Channel TV program. Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, famous for testing ideas using impressive explosions, will lead a 90-minute program with outtakes and behind-the-scenes experiences from the show. |
