If you want to get children interested in the fundamentals of science, there’s nothing like letting them experience the phenomena first-hand. If you can make it fun at the same time, you have a formula for success.

For the seventh year in a row, Fermilab is inviting families and scout troops to attend the Family Outdoor Fair on Sunday, June 8, from 1-4 p.m.
On Wednesday, April 23, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m., Fermilab will offer high-school students a valuable opportunity to ask those questions in person.
The annual Wonders of Science show will again pack Ramsey Auditorium at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory on Sunday, April 6.
Scientists working on the world’s leading particle collider experiments have joined forces, combined their data and produced the first joint result from Fermilab’s Tevatron and CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC), past and current holders of the record for most powerful particle collider on Earth.
Beginning on Saturday, April 12, Tufte will show many of his favorite pieces at Fermilab for a 10-week exhibit illuminating the elegant genius of Feynman and his diagrams.
Scientists on the CDF and DZero experiments at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have announced that they have found the final predicted way of creating a top quark, completing a picture of this particle nearly 20 years in the making.
Scientists on the world’s longest-distance neutrino experiment announced today that they have seen their first neutrinos.
The Family Open House is one of the most popular annual events hosted by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. This year’s event will take place on Feb. 9 from 1 to 5 p.m. in Wilson Hall.
The Fermilab Holometer has reached its design luminosity, building up more than 1 kilowatt of infrared laser power stored in a 40-meter-long Michelson interferometer. This light intensity corresponds to more than 10 billion trillion photons per second hitting the interferometer optics. It also allows scientists to measure the optics’ positions to a resolution 1,000 times smaller than the size of a proton.
