Yes, it's that time of year again.
SciFest is back at the St. Louis Science Center this October 7-11. For those of you that have never been to or heard of the annual event (since they don't publicize it very well,), Scifest is a five-day celebration of science with over 60 different sessions and lectures. Most of what is available for view is pretty watered down for the general public, but some of the lectures are quite informative. I really recomend a lot of the events on Saturday and Sunday (since the weekday sessions are for school children on field trips).
Some of the more interesting events (at least to me) include:
- Rock Guitar in 11 Dimensions
- Bionic You
- Honeybees in Crisis
- What is Reality?
- Can The Moon Save the Earth?
- Feeding The World
- The Science of Ted Drewes
Unfortuanately, the Schlafly science of brewing will not be there this year. I don't know why, it just isn't.
Ticket prices are as followed:
Single ticket for day session - $6
Single Ticket for Evening Session - $10
All Day Pass - $10 for Science Center Members. $20 for non-Members.
Extravaganza Ticket - $100
UPDATE: I will probably be getting a whole bunch of free session tickets since I am volunteering on Sunday and my employer is sponsering the event. If you want some contact me or comment below.

Yeah, they had that one last year and it was a big hit. I was not able to attend that session, unfortunately, but I want to go this year. Let me know and I'll try to get you a free ticket. Also, I live right by the science center if you want to come up for the whole day and need a place to crash.
