LIMA, OH (WLIO) - OSU Lima and Lima City Schools teaming up for some scientific learning.
The William Fowler Science Series is a cross-disciplinary program for the community and local middle and high school students. Over 100 students from the Lima City Schools came to the OSU Lima to visit the physics, geology, and biology labs for hands-on activities. Students got to learn about motion detector technology in the physics lab, dissected a cow eye in the biology lab, and learned about eclipses, which is timed perfectly as the total solar eclipse will be viewable in the Lima area coming up in April. The abundance of learning available at OSU Lima opened the eyes of some students, even if they should stay shut during the eclipse.
"The fact that it's like so bright that it'll hurt your eyes and it just, the moon would be like pinkish red, it's a blood moon he said. I would take away that science is a big part of life, and it just, everything has to do with science. It makes me more interested in like science and makes me want to study more," commented Terrionna Bagley, junior at Lima Senior High School.
The total solar eclipse will be on April 8th and will be viewable in the Lima area.
