The Physics Circus Teaches Science, with Joseph Ziegel
The Physics Circus at The University of Texas at Austin tries to attract kids to
science using loud and entertaining demonstrations that might not be as
accessible to the average school. Led by graduate students doing the latest in
physics research, The Physics Circus is getting back into live shows again.
Joseph Ziegel is one of the coordinators of the group, along with Jordan Zesch,
and Joseph describes their mission of young scientists spreading more love of
science. Related to this episode: • The Physics Circus at The University of
