Science Sunday: Light and Shadows

What is a shadow? Does any object cast a shadow? Can you actually bend light? Learn all this and more as you examine the anatomy of a shadow and find out what each part of a shadow is called. Make a dark spot light and investigate how an object's translucence effects how light passes through it. Then test your knowledge as you attempt to make a magnifying liquid lens.
