Saturday Morning Science is a series of one hour science talks hosted by the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Missouri-Columbia. These are not your typical science lectures. Expect to be entertained, to see demonstrations, to learn a lot, and—best of all—to want to come back for more. Saturday Morning Science is free and open to the public. No science background is required. All ages are welcome. Saturday Morning Science is sponsored by MU Office of Research, University Bookstore, Monsanto, and Pierpont Productions.
