 WHAT TO EXPECT
For each of these events there will be a
number of displays, demonstrations and
hands-on opportunities for everyone to
explore, tweak and enjoy that will be
centered around the evening’s theme.
Expect other fun surprises as well!
Rain or shine, we have a fun and
interesting evening planned for each of
these dates, and while the weather can
certainly impact the night’s telescope
viewing, the rest of the events will be
unaffected. 
MADE ACCESSIBLE
Science, in all its many wondrous
forms, can often be overwhelming
and daunting, especially for those just
starting to explore and learn.
That’s where American Science &
Surplus can help you. Long a
destination frequented by budding
and amateur scientists, we are
expanding our hands-on approach
to science and learning by offering
a series of Science Nights at our
stores.
 These events will give you, your
friends and family an opportunity to
explore the far reaches of both
outer and inner space through
professional quality telescopes and
microscopes; hands-on and hair-
raising experiments with electricity;
chemistry experiments to create
gooey and slippery slimes and
polymers and much, much more.
