Three times a year the PSFC reaches out to High Schools, Middle Schools, and Elementary Schools around Massachusetts, inviting one teacher and their students from each school to a spend a day at the Center. Through tours, talks and demonstrations, attendees learn about plasmas, their behavior, and their role in harnessing fusion energy. Students will have the opportunity to see how plasmas are confined, to perform hands-on demonstrations with electromagnetism, and to review the progress of MIT's plasma experiments. The next Outreach Day will be announced soon.
