Continuing its long-term prairie reconstruction project, the Department of Energy’s Fermilab again invites neighbors and friends to help harvest prairie flower seeds.

Some of the hottest topics in the field of physics today, ranging from “Dark Energy and the Runaway Universe,” to “The Warpings of Spacetime” and “The Coming Revolutions in Particle Physics,” will energize the World Year of Physics Symposium for Students and Teachers, to be held on Saturday, October 8, 2005 in Ramsey Auditorium at the Department of Energy’s Fermilab.

Preparing for an onslaught of data to be processed and distributed in the upcoming years, scientists at the Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and at the California Institute of Technology successfully tested a new ultrafast data transfer connection developed by the Office of Science of the Department of Energy.
