Did you know Connecticut used to be covered in a glacier 14 times higher than the Science Center? Today we are exploring more about glaciers thanks to a project put together by the teens in our Teen Innovation Program this summer. The glacier that once covered Connecticut helped to shape our landscape by creating the Connecticut River Valley. Learn exactly how this happened and so much more in our latest version of Science Sunday.
There is so much more Science Sunday to explore. Check out the full gallery of segments on our blog: https://ctsciencecenter.org/blog_categories/science-sunday/.
