It’s Not Magic, It’s Science!

Michigan's Adventure |
April 12, 2021

Let’s admit it, visiting an amusement park is FUN.  Have you ever wondered about the science behind that fun?  They seem magical, but it is all based on science.

We are excited to partner with Rockwell Automation and Global STEM Ambassador, Jay Flores, and share a five-part video series, It’s Not Magic, It’s Science! In this exciting series of YouTube videos, Jay will explore the science behind some of your favorite attractions.  New videos will be added every few weeks.

As you plan your next visit to our amusement park in Michigan, think about the real science that is the basis of all of our attractions.  Remember, whether it is one of our kids attractions or the largest coaster at the park, It’s Not Magic, It’s Science!
