Field Trips

Teachers tell us that they enjoy Field Trips to Arizona Science Center and find them a great educational experience for their students. Many teachers, however, have told us they would like us to do more to help their students learn from our exhibits, IMAX films, planetarium shows, and other educational activities. We’ve listened and come up with what we call Focused Field Trips.

Sponsor Acknowledgements

Arizona Science Center would like to thank the following sponsors for their generous support of field trips for school groups

The probability that two snow crystals will be exactly alike, in molecular structure and in appearance, is very minute. And to prove otherwise would not be easy. Each winter there are about 1 septillion (1, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 or a trillion trillion) snow crystals that drop from the sky!
