In a time when it seems there’s more bad news than good, we’d like to share a story that makes us grin ear-to-ear. Take heart, science lovers! The future of scientific learning is alive and well—in the small form of a nine-year-old girl from Georgia.
Angelica Krubeck is the founder of Super Science Kids, a new nonprofit whose mission is to “teach and engage at-risk children and youth (in shelters and in the foster care system) into the field of science.” According to her website, www.supersciencekids.org, it all started in February 2016, as Angelica began to mold her plans for a volunteer program that would serve at-risk children who might not otherwise have a chance to explore—and most of all, enjoy—science.

What’s newsworthy about summer? Well, aside from the fact that it’s time to relax, it’s also the time of year when we typically see more shooting stars… more droughts… more wildfires… more bugs… and (dare we say it?) more shark attacks. We don’t have a crystal ball, but these are our predictions for Summer Science in the news.
During the summer, we love getting outdoors and soaking up the rays (with sunscreen, of course)! Before you head outside, take a look at our hand-picked summer science videos. If you have your own favorite summer science video ideas, please share them with us in the comments section below!
