Earth Science Projects
Constructing earth science projects can be exciting and fun. Most people however, find it difficult to come up with an experiment for their project. The following information provides ideas and sample science fair projects to assist in the development and arrangement of your earth science project. For additional science project experiments, see Science Fair Topics.
Earth Science Projects - Example Projects
The following project examples are meant to give you some ideas on how to perform experiments and arrange your project. Use these projects to help you get started. After completing the projects, try coming up with additional ideas and testing procedures to make the project your own.Crystal Growing Science Fair Project - Crystals and Temperature
What are crystals? How do they grow? This science project for kids helps you learn about how temperature affects crystal growth.
Crystal Growing Science Fair Project - Rock Candy Crystals and Evaporation
This crystal growing science project helps you learn about evaporation and rock candy crystal growth.
Crystal Growing Science Fair Project - Rock Candy and Sugar
Want to know how to produce lots and lots of rock candy? This science project helps you learn about growing rock candy crystals.
Earthquake Science Fair Project - Bridges
Which bridge type will withstand an earthquake the best? This science project examines the relationship between bridge structure and stability during earthquakes.
Hurricane Science Fair Project
Hurricanes are very destructive forces of nature. Complete this project to find out how air pressure affects hurricane strength.
Solar Energy Science Fair Project - Solar Panels
Are other types of light as effective at producing energy as sunlight? This solar energy project examines the amount of energy solar panels can produce from sunlight as compared to artificial light.
Solar Science Fair Project - Solar Cells
Do you know how solar cells and photovoltaic energy systems work? This project examines the effects of different wavelengths of light on solar cells using fuel cell and solar powered cars.
Solar Science Fair Project - Solar Oven
This solar oven science project experiment determines if air temperature affects the cooking efficiency of a solar oven.
Space Science Fair Project - Lunar Phases and Moon Altitude
The moon is very important to life on earth. It stabilizes earth's orbit and motion, and also produces tides. This science project determines the moon's altitude during different lunar phases.
Weather Science Fair Project
What factors affect the weather? This science project examines the relationships between temperature, pressure and humidity in differing weather conditions.
Wind Energy Science Fair Project
This wind energy science fair project examines the relationship between wind speed and wind strength.
Windmill Science Project
Complete this windmill science project to determine if wind energy or solar energy will be most effective at powering a windmill.
Volcano Science Project - Chemical Reactions
Most kids love to watch volcanoes explode. Using volcano kits, this science project allows you to discover which mixtures produce the most explosive eruption.
