Using a CD, a piece of paper, and some tape, visitors can build their own spectrometers! These instruments help scientists see all the colors that the light from different light sources (like light bulbs and fire) are made of. Visitors will also have the opportunity to use a real spectrometer to observe and analyze a variety of light sources!
