Spirit and Truth Fellowship of Knoxville (STFK) is a member of the NOVA scienceNOW community and proudly sponsors Science Café events for the Knoxville, Tennessee area.
The STFK Science Café has been meeting monthly since April, 2011 to promote science interest and education. We begin each meeting by watching a 10-minute NOVA video about a science topic. This is followed by a Q&A discussion in which attendees have their questions answered by a guest scientist. This is a casual, fun, engaging dialog for adults and mature teenagers. Children age 5-12 are welcome at attend with their parents, and we will keep them busy at Kid's Café with a science lesson and activities that help make learning science fun!
Please RSVP by sending an e-mail message to rsvp@knoxsciencecafe.org. Let us know how many adults and children are in your group.
- Topic: "Civil Air Patrol Tennessee Wing Preparations for a New Madrid Earthquake"
- Presenter: Lt. Col. Rob Borsari CAP, Tennessee Wing Director of Operations, Tennessee Wing Group 1 Commander
- Synopsis: The Civil Air Patrol is training for a major earthquake that could strike the area here where we live! In 1812, there was a major earthquake event in our area that was so severe, it moved the bed of the Mississippi River and rang bells as far away as Boston, Massachusetts. Geology Study shows that earthquakes in our area come in cycles, and we are due for one. If an earthquake happens here, the Civil Air Patrol will take an active role in rescues, road closures, and fight plans.
