Mad Science did a show this week called "Fire & Ice". Jasper and I both love Mad Science shows, so there was no way we were going to miss this one. I'm not sure if there was truly any unifying scientific principle for all these experiments, but that doesn't mean that we didn't both learn a lot. And of course it was thoroughly enthralling. The lady doing this presentation was beyond fantastic.

| Changes in air pressure caused by a hair dryer allow three pingpong balls at once to float in the air! |
 |
| The fire inside the flask consumed oxygen, lowering the air pressure. The shelled, hard boiled egg on top, suddenly popped in! |
 |
| Dry ice mixed with water can be used to make some pretty cool soap bubbles! |
And lastly, a video of our Mad Scientist handing out more dry ice soap bubbles!
