On Friday, March 22, some of the CHP Middle School girls attended a trip to Princeton University. There, they attended the Young Women in Science Conference sponsored by Princeton Plasma Physics Lab. Our young ladies had hands-on activities such as using the brain to control body muscles, designing DNA models, creating a human electric charge ring, and new advances on rounding up plastic in our oceans. There was even a live stream of a female astronaut repairing a module on the outside skin of the ISS as she was tethered on it in Space.
Our young CHP female scientists witnessed chemical reactions in a chemistry show, enjoyed a lecture by a young female Physicist who is making a plasma star here on Earth for future power generating. In fact, she was just named California Woman of the Year. Dr. Stropoli and Mrs. Galiano chaperoned the students around and enjoyed spending this incredible day with our students and 300 more young ladies who may be our future biologists, physicists, chemists, astronauts, and more.
The future looks bright for these students, as bright as our plasma Sun.
