All mammals share the trait of having hair on their body, from seals to bears.

For them, it can provide warmth, protection, camouflage, spread scent, help with self-defense and serve as a sensory gland.

Those are just a few of the fun facts about hair we learned from Rick Crosslin, MSD Wayne Township Scientist in Residences, today as he explained the science behind hair, which is also known as Trichology.

Interesting Hair Facts:

The latest experiment from Rick Crosslin, MSD Wayne Township Scientist in Residence, appears to be toothpaste fit for an elephant, but in reality, it’s a giant foaming reaction using chemical elements.

With just a few ingredients you can make something that looks like foamy toothpaste being squeezed from a tube, but so big that it looks sized for an elephant!

Each tiny foam bubble is filled with oxygen. The yeast acted as a catalyst; a catalyst is used to speed up a reaction. 

The elephant toothpaste demo is one of the most popular chemistry demonstrations, in which a steaming tube of foam keeps erupting from its container, resembling a smooshed tube of elephant-sized toothpaste. The classic demo uses 30% hydrogen peroxide, which is not safe for kids, but there is a safe version of this demonstration that is still very cool.

Looking for something fun to do with the kids over the holiday break?

Rick Crosslin, scientist in residence at MSD Wayne Township joined us today with a few holiday-related experiments!

He says old LED and incandescent Christmas lights are a perfect tool to explore electric circuits.

Crosslin also demonstrated how to make a simple circuit light-up Christmas card using a battery and old lights.

Supplies Needed:

What happens to this pickle may be shocking!

Rick Crosslin, scientist in residence at MSD Wayne Township joined us today with two spooky experiments.

First, he showed how electricity can flow through a pickle, causing it to light up using the Thomas Edison Filament.

Then he showed how the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide makes a giant cloud of smoke come out of a bottle. He says, this is the same technique used in “I Dream of Jeannie” when she pops out of the bottle.

You can see Rick Crosslin and Keith Ramsey, MSD Wayne Township science teacher, at Conner Prairie this weekend presenting dozens of spooky experiments like this!

It’s happening on Saturday, October 30 from 6:15 p.m. and 7:45 p.m.
