The start of Assumption Catholic School’s school year was a “blast” thanks to 7th and 8th grade science teacher, Mr. Hawthorn. Hawthorn, along with the help of student Anthony Davis, demonstrated the scientific reaction caused by extreme temperatures. Hawthorn first filled a container with liquid nitrogen. Then, as warm water was added to the container, the resulting rapid condensation caused a billowing, fog-like vapor that created a stunning visual effect to get students excited for the upcoming school year. (Editor’s note: This was a safe, supervised experiment, and no students were harmed.)
