April's Pressing Science Saturday

News Release • April 12, 2016

Tour LIGO in Livingston LA during Science Saturday

On April 16th LIGO Science Education Center in Livingston, LA, will be hosting tours as part of it's monthly Science Saturday.  We will be open from 1 PM - 5 PM, and will be focusing on the topic of PRESSURE.  Learn about pressure, air pressure & vacuums such as the vacuum of outer space.  Did you know that LIGO contains one of the worlds largest continuously operating ultra-high vacuums?  LIGO's vacuum systems are so effective at removing air that the it's a better vacuum than outer-space!
LIGO's Science Saturdays are free and open to the public, but we request that groups of 15 or more let us know that you intend to come by filling out a tour request form.
