Sycamore Science Camp: More Than Meets The Eye

Open Space Staff

Does red always mean danger? Does the color blue actually exist? What is the deal with peacocks? In this session of science camp, we will investigate the science of colors, camouflage, dazzling iridescence, and other visual phenomena to reveal how much more there is to nature that meets the eye!
