Great Lakes Science Center couldn't be more "eggcited" to bring back Eggsperiment - a fan favorite event to welcome back spring and celebrate the amazing structure of the egg! Eggsperiment runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, March 30 and Saturday, March 31.

Guests of all ages will discover if it's possible to stand on a carton of eggs without cracking any, test their balance on an egg race obstacle course, explore the science behind sound, and build a contraption to protect their egg from a 62-foot fall in the Humpty Dumpty Plunge.
