Science Week continues in Tipperary

Science Week continues in Tipperary and the highlight this Thursday - November 12th - features a Pedal Power Lab in Roscrea Library on the Birr Road.

 

Using machines made from recycled things, Paul Finch will demonstrate self-motive power. Using old bits of bicycles, washing machines, motors, pumps, fans, he'll operate machines without using electricity. These machines will power a fan, lights, a water pump, a blender, make smoothies and possibly even fly!
