Crystal Growing & Crystallography Kit, (Crystal PRO)
Since ancient times, crystals have exerted a powerful attraction on people.
The origin of their fascinating geometric shapes was a mystery to early
civilizations. The name "crystal" itself comes from the ancient Greek
"crystallos," meaning "ice," because people believed
crystals were made of water that had been frozen at very low temperatures.
Today, crystals still captivate people for their beautiful,
distinctive forms and colors. Through the ages, scientists have learned a great
deal about the structural composition and materials science behind crystals.
Now, we can even grow our own!
With Crystal PRO, budding materials scientists and mineralogists
learn about the structure and geometry of crystals by growing their own large,
beautiful specimens with complex shapes and spectacular colors.
Grow deep blue rhomboids, brilliantly clear prisms and pale
violet octahedrons. Contemplate the natural order of the universe as you
discover why crystals form and how atoms fit together to make these
ultra-organized structures. Build a balance scale to take measurements like real
research scientists. Discover how crystals that grow quickly are different from
slower-growing ones. Learn how the pyramids of Egypt can help us understand
crystal structures.
