Load the ASTRO-BLASTER™ and watch as the top ball BLASTS off over 5 times the dropped height! As you drop the set of balls down onto a hard surface the top ball will ball blast off, demonstrating the Law of Conservation of Energy. Safety goggles are included with this unique mutliple collision accelerator. The same thing happens when a supernova is created. The Astro-Blaster can also demonstrate what happens as a dying star collapses.
(Ages 8+)

What you'll get:

• Astro Blaster with threading stick, 4 balls and two additional bonus replacement rocket balls.
  
• Safety glasses.

Incredible Science Fun Learning Ideas:

• Use the Astro-Blaster, quite literally, as a spring board into a lesson of the Law of Conservation of Energy.
  
• The famous astrophysicist, Dr. Stirling Colgate, the AstroBlaster demonstrates the incredible kinetic power of a super-nova.
• Discuss kinetic and potential energy and transformations. Determine the specific time there is the most potential energy and the time there is the most kinetic energy.
