Educator Resource: Presentation

A Day in the Life

Every day, people at Sanford Lab take a cage ride nearly a mile underground. During this presentation students get a chance to envision themselves working in an underground research laboratory.
Level
Early Elementary, Upper Elementary

Working nearly one mile underground is uncommon. How do Sanford Lab scientists and staff get underground? What do they wear and what do they do? This presentation will provide a glimpse into what it is like to work in an underground research laboratory. There is even a chance to model some of the personal protective gear worn underground!
