Dry Ice – the Coolest Ice Around

What type of ice is so cold you can’t pick it up, but it will never melt? What type of ice can make George Washington scream, a Halloween cauldron come to life, and film canister rockets blast off? You won’t find the answer in your freezer, and it has nothing to do with water.

In this program, students are invited to see the power of frozen solid carbon dioxide … dry ice.
