Amazed by science

Maui Science and Discovery Center volunteer Michelle O’Byrne amazes the crowd as she creates a cloud inside a plastic bottle Saturday morning during Kihei Public Library’s “Explore Science: Earth and Space” event. O’Byrne asked children to squeeze a rubber bulb at the top of the bottle to pump air to make pressure and heat. When the top was removed, the clear bottle was suddenly filled with vapor.
