Find order in the universe

Crystal Growing & Crystallography Kit

Since ancient times, crystals have exerted a powerful attraction on people. The origin of their fascinating geometric shapes was a mystery to early civilizations. The name "crystal" itself comes from the ancient Greek "crystallos," meaning "ice," because people believed crystals were made of water that had been frozen at very low temperatures.

Today, crystals still captivate people for their beautiful, distinctive forms and colors. Through the ages, scientists have learned a great deal about the structural composition and materials science behind crystals. Now, we can even grow our own!

With Crystal PRO, budding materials scientists and mineralogists learn about the structure and geometry of crystals by growing their own large, beautiful specimens with complex shapes and spectacular colors.

Grow deep blue rhomboids, brilliantly clear prisms and pale violet octahedrons. Contemplate the natural order of the universe as you discover why crystals form and how atoms fit together to make these ultra-organized structures. Build a balance scale to take measurements like real research scientists. Discover how crystals that grow quickly are different from slower-growing ones. Learn how the pyramids of Egypt can help us understand crystal structures. Manufacturer: TK. Manufacturer's Part Number: 644819.

Picture of productPhysics Discovery



Introduction to mechanical physics

With Physics Discovery, you can build 12 models and then conduct experiments with the models to learn about forces and simple machines. Each model demonstrates a fundamental idea in mechanical physics. For example, you can build a balance scale to learn about lever arms, a freight elevator to learn about pulleys, a bicycle to learn about wheels, a motion picture machine to learn about centripetal and centrifugal forces, and a transmission to learn about gears. Physics Discovery is a smaller, introductory companion to our best-selling Physics Workshop kit. It has different building projects and experiments, but parts that are compatible with those in Physics Workshop and Physics Solar Workshop. This kit includes more than 100 building pieces. The 32-page book offers illustrated instructions for building projects and experiments. Manufacturer: TK. Manufacturer's Part Number: 626914.

Picture of productPhysics Solar Workshop



Solar power technology in action.

In one way or another, almost every form of energy we use originates as energy from the Sun. Solar energy directly powers photovoltaic cells and thermal collectors. Indirectly, we get power from plants grown by the Sun, oceans heated by the Sun, and Earths weather systems sustained by the Sun. Even the energy stored in fossil fuels originated as energy from the Sun, captured by plants and animals millions of years ago. Physics Solar Workshop explores the topic of solar energy, focusing on photovoltaic cells. By building 12 models and conducting 30 experiments, you will learn how solar cells transform light into electrical energy, and how motors and mechanical devices can optimize the work done by this energy. You will build different types of vehicles and machines to demonstrate how gears can convert and transform power for different needs. There are 320 parts, which are also compatible with the other Physics kits. The 64-page book offers illustrated instructions for the projects. Developed with Greenpeace in Germany. Manufacturer: TK. Manufacturer's Part Number: 623715.
