Green Plants Red Glow at Bond Park
Have you ever wondered about the hidden life of plants? Join us at Bond Park for an immersive scientific journey into the world of photosynthesis. This hands-on workshop, titled Green Plants Red Glow, invites participants of all ages to explore the fascinating phenomenon of chlorophyll fluorescence. While plants appear green to the naked eye, they constantly emit a faint red glow that serves as a vital signal for global ecology and agricultural health. Scientists even use this hidden light to track plant activity from space satellites.
During this session, we will perform a captivating experiment to extract chlorophyll from spinach leaves. You will witness firsthand the brilliant red light emitted by this pigment when exposed to specific illumination, revealing the energetic process that powers life on our planet. This interactive experience is designed for families, students, and curious minds who want to bridge the gap between classroom theory and real world science.
Space is limited for this unique exploration of plant physiology. We invite you to sign up today to secure your spot and gain a deeper appreciation for the silent, glowing world of nature right in your backyard.
