The Scholars at Argonne National Laboratory

“He talked about it as a structural failure. When the tower was
built, part of it was on solid rock and part of it was on bad sandy soil.
So part of it is sitting on a nice part while the rest is slowly sinking,” she
said.
“Just recently, they had to build a support under the tower
because it was leaning far enough over that they thought it was going
to fall.”
In addition, the students visited a virtual reality lab that gave them a
simulation of the Ice Cube Lab at the South Pole.
“We’re looking at the neutrinos interacting with the ice. They built
a lab something like a mile down into the ice, where we have some of
the clearest ice on the planet,” she said. “I have read where, if ice melts
from the ice caps, the ocean level could rise and a lot of our coastal
areas would be under water.”
While in Chicago, they toured the Fermi Lab and the Argonne
National Laboratory. The Fermi Lab works with the long-phase
neutrino that shoots a beam from Fermi to the Sanford Lab in South
Dakota.
