For the kids: Magical Magnets

Families are invited to join the staff of the U.S. Navy Museum as we explore magnetism. Children will learn how catapults on aircraft carriers work and about the Navy’s transition steam catapult systems to electromagnetic systems. Each child is invited to build a magnetically levitating car and race it down a special magnetic track in the Museum!
