The Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) hosts Neutrino Day in Lead July 13.

The event is a free, city-wide science festival that features tours, activities, performances, and more.

Some new additions this year include:

  • Tours of SURF’s ethnobotanical garden, Čhaŋgléška Wakȟáŋ
  • Mr. Freeze’s Cryogenic show, which explores fascinating properties of liquid nitrogen
  • Ian Her Many Horses’ talk on the power of computer science for kids
  • Airplane and rocket building
  • Cookie decorating
  • Hand-tinting photographs

And SDPB is again getting in on the learning this year. We'll have a special broadcast of In the Moment Friday live from SURF's facility in Lead.

Find the full Neutrino Day schedule here as well as a map of the events and activities.
