The experiment was part of the new after-school Science Club kick-off event introduced by teacher Teresa Huneke.

The free nine-week program will introduce students at the pre-K through fifth grade school to various disciplines of scientific study including air and flight, renewable energy, geology and rocketry. Science Club meetings are organized by volunteer 3M Wizards, a geologist and an instructor from the Minnesota Starbase Center.
