February is an exciting month as COSI opens the new traveling exhibit Goose Bumps! The Science of Fear and hosts exhibits from NASA for a special 50th anniversary celebration. Don't miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to see these artifacts and hear from former NASA astronauts!
C'mon, What Are You Afraid Of?

Why do our hearts race, our knees shake, and our bodies sweat when we are scared?
Goose Bumps! The Science of Fear, a new traveling exhibit, explores this universal emotion that can save our lives. Through fun, interactive challenges, visitors can experience fear in a safe environment and discover the science behind their physical and emotional responses. The exhibit opens at COSI on Saturday, February 9, 2008 and runs though May 4, 2008. Goose Bumps! is included with the price of COSI admission and is free for members.
