PiA – Physics in Advent

It’s almost Christmas time again! In celebration of the holiday season Physics in Advent is hosting their annual advent calendar. It will include 24 small, simple experiments and physics mysteries for young researchers and anybody who enjoys the like.

Each day, starting December 1st until the 24th a video clip of an experiment, which you can do yourself afterwards, will be uploaded onto the PiA website. These tasks will be published daily at 5am (local time zone) and submissions will close at 11pm the same day.

Children between the age of 10 to 18 or school classes in grade 5 to 10 are also eligible to win special prizes, including a trip to the USA!
