SURF’s Emergency Response Team (ERT) are the first responders for all incidents that might occur above or below ground at the facility. The team now includes a majority of individuals who are trained as Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT).
Each year, a small but mighty team of educators at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) fan out across the state and region to bring hands-on STEM based activities to thousands of students in K-12 classrooms.
Two student engineering teams at SDSU spent their senior year on capstone design projects at SURF. One team built a new mine rail cart for hauling liquid nitrogen underground. The other built a drone for inspecting hard to reach vertical shafts.
The Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) recently donated a high-end projector to the Homestake Opera House, as part of an ongoing effort to restore the treasured theater for the community.
The global hunt for dark matter continues to push uncharted territory—and knowing where dark matter isn’t, is an important part of helping find where it is.
Since 2012, Spearfish High School science teacher Steve Gabriel has been leading a student mentorship program that gives his students hands-on, real-world experience in monitoring the underground airflow at SURF.
