Science Saturdays offered rare, behind-the-scenes tours at internationally known research facilities and labs as well as up-close examinations of the natural wonders of our city, surrounding communities and universe.

From September 2008-August 2009, at over 75 locations, Science Saturdays participants explored the forefront of research, industry, medicine and the environment alongside the scientists and engineers who are changing the face of science and our world.
