Get in the Halloween spirit as the Society of Physics Students presents The Nineteenth Annual Pumpkin Drop. Legend has it that Galileo Galilei demonstrated his Law of Falling Bodies by climbing to the top of the Tower of Pisa so that he could drop a large ball and a small ball at the same time. Both balls hit the ground together! We will re-enact this great moment in the history of science using pumpkins. Galileo himself will be the master of ceremonies. In addition, we will use Galileo”s Law to drop pumpkins in time to the cannon blasts of Tchaikovsky”s “1812 Overture.” The Pumpkin Drop will be held at high noon on Tuesday, October 31st on the south side of Butte Hall. We promise you a smashing good time! For more information contact Dr. David Kagan, Department of Physics, CSU Chico, 898-6259 or visit the Society of Physics Students on the web at phys.csuchico.edu/sps/activities.html.
