Science Friday Science Club: Observe Everything
16:54 minutes
Galileo recorded changes in the surface of the sun. Darwin noticed differences in the beaks of Galápagos finches. Marie Curie studied uranium rays. Ben Franklin recorded weather patterns and used those observations to develop a theory of storm movement in the atmosphere. Many scientific discoveries started with careful observations. Science Club founding members Ariel Zych and Charles Bergquist explain the club’s next project, which involves observing the world around you. Find out more by going to the Science Club page.
