Default Super Science for High School Physics

I've helped with a display booth for two physicists who work at
Battelle after graduating from OSU. One works with Peta-Watt lasers
and the other with meta-materials. Peta watt lasers might be useful
in sparking fusion reactions and making laser rockets work. Meta-
materials make invisibility cloaks a reality and other cool stuff.

We're on Freedom Square at the corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and 13th
street.

Across the way from their booth are a series of NASA booths.
President Obama just got done speaking. There is a 20 foot long 3
foot high anaglyph of the Mars Terrain taken by the Mars Rover - and
the Rover Team is there talking to kids and teachers.

Here are other anaglyph images (get your red green glasses kids!)

Interesting, Mook the teacher or assistant. Can we video chat with
that booth?
