MythBusters: The Explosive Exhibition Now At Liberty Science Center! Review and Giveawaymyth3Recently our family had the chance to check out the new exhibit at Liberty Science Center in Jersey City, NJ! Just a quick trip from NYC it’s a great place to spend the day with the family. As you know I was a teacher for twenty years and hubby is currently teaching.  Saying that, I am sure you can imagine how much we are always on the look out for exhibits where there is not only fun but education. MythBusters The Explosive Exhibition is definitely something that hits both categories. It is fun for the entire family and also educational. The best part is that your kids do not have to know the latter, they will think it’s just all about having fun!

If you are familiar with the show MythBusters you already know how exciting this exhibition will be. For those of you who don’t know about the show, Mythbusters is a show on Discovery Channel that takes myths, urban legends and tall tales and sees how they hold up when they come face to face with Science! They tell if the myths are true or if they definitely could not happen. The Scientific Method is going on in full force. The Mythbuster team takes the experiements to the max using some modern tech and even including some powered up explosions.

MythBusters: The Explosive Exhibition is your family’s chance to be part of the action by actually trying out some of the Mythbusters methods during the exhibit. Below are some ways LSC has lined up to help out families get to the bottom of things.

Wonder – What crazy questions can we ask?
Research – What is already known about those questions?
Guess – What do you think the answers are?
Test – Design experiments to answer the questions.
Discover – Test and test again…and break some stuff too.
Results – What did your experiments tell you?
Share – Shout it from the rooftops! Make a TV show about it!

The exhibition is set up to look like the set of the show but it actually does not matter if you have ever seen or even heard of the show. To be honest with you, I had never watched an episode of it until I went to the exhibit. Now my family cannot get enough of it! There are a few experiments to check like: The Big Bad Wolf where you can see if the little pigs really did have a chance stacking up those bricks. I have been wondering about that for years.

In addition to all of this there is also a Live Demonstration Stage where you can be part of the action. Guests are challenged with myths about human reaction time and momentum. I would strongly suggest being a part of this or watching it.

If this is something that interests you, it’s time to head over to Liberty Science Center and checking out everything that MythBusters: The Explosive Exhibition!
