Microwaves bounce back and forth as, well, waves. Depending on the size of the wave, some spots are hot and some are cold. This is why most microwave ovens have turntables — the heat is more evenly spread out. How can Brian, Sierra and Mary show that this is what’s happening inside the microwave? It’s time for another experiment!

We’re brainstorming for our next episode of Everyday Science, the “Time” episode. We need your help on this one, folks! Tell us . . . what do you think is cool about time? What does time do? What relies on time? Why is time important to you? How does it affect your every day life?
The Little Shop of Physics travels with hands-on science experiments which we’ve shared with over 250,000 students. We don’t just show students science — we help them DO science! Our goal is to teach people that science is something anyone can do. Each year we see about 20,000 students—not including the 5,000+ folks who attend our yearly Open House at Colorado State University.
We primarily work with students by visiting schools all over the region. But we also work with teachers through our teacher workshops and the community through our Everyday Science TV show.
