STEM In 30- Math & Magic

What do designing aircraft, enlarging paintings, and running faster than the Wright Flyer all have in common? These things may all seem like feats of magic, but they all rely heavily on Math. Learn about the math involved in designing aircraft interiors from a Safran engineer, see how International Space Station astornaut Joe Acaba and NASA Astronaut Peggy Whitson use math, meet STEM in 30's friend Houston Texans mascot TORO, and learn about the science of sound from Doc Nix & The Green Machine from George Mason University. You will also see how students from Providence Elementary School enlarge paintings using math and learn a little magic along the way on the latest episode of the National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution's STEM in 30.
