Physics for All
From searching for a hidden treasure with Albert Einstein to following the timeline of twentieth century physics discoveries, the American Physical Society’s Physics for All programs aim to capture the imaginations of people of all ages with the wonders of physics and its importance in our everyday lives. Physics is all around us, and its greatest discoveries start with curiosity and determination. Whether you’re aged 5 or 100, we want to show you the excitement of physics.

Outreach Guide
This guide was created to provide ideas, opportunities, and most importantly “how-to” information regarding physics outreach programs.
NCAR Sponsored Trip to Kenya
APS Public Outreach Specialist, Chris Discenza, was able to accompany Sherri Heck and Christina Pease of the National Center for Atmospheric Research on a NCAR sponsored trip to Kenya in July 2009. The outreach, organized by Sherri Heck, was primarily to provide physics and atmospheric science materials to rural schools in Kenya.
