Laserfest is the year-long celebration of the 50th anniversary of the invention of the laser. Agnes Scott received an On the Road grant to support an outreach event based on educating the public on lasers and their many uses. The even will consist of several hands-on demonstrations of both practical and less practical (but fun!) applications of lasers. If you are in town, please join us!

Event: Beam Me Up Scottie!

What: Hands on demonstrations of light and lasers, including a laser telephone, hands-on optics maze, laser radar for measuring the atmosphere, and sky viewing with the telescope.
