Description
Experiment with the power of the sun!
Following along with the detailed 48-page manual, young engineers get to build five amazing solar-powered machines and then use them to conduct a variety of fascinating experiments.
It starts simple with a helicopter model that converts sunlight into a rotating motion. Then, the complexity increases as you build a solar-bot, a moon rover, a stag beetle, and even a praying mantis model that moves like a real insect.
All the while – kids are learning all about photovoltaic cells and how exactly they turn light into electric energy!
Complete with 142 parts that are compatible with other Thames & Kosmos physics and engineering kits, the Physics Solar Workshop set is an ideal start to a bright, green future.
