A Different Kind of Mars Light

You can't clamp this one top of your car, but it'll give your living room a lovely star-trekkish design flavor. A Saturn-like (oddly, given the name) planet sits atop a silver hourglass/lava-lampish base and either pulses or slowly, fetchingly morphs through luminous red, green, and lavender colors, via internal LEDs. Runs on an internal rechargeable battery or household current (adapter included), and stands 10-3/4" tall x 6-1/8" dia at its widest (the planetary ring). The ring and the center of the base have a decorative blue band.

Mood Sheet

Mood Sheet

See psychedelic patterns the safe way! Press your hand on this 6" x 6" sheet of liquid crystal and leave a print of swirling colors that, like the mood ring of yore, you can use as a sign of your mood. The pattern will blend and fade in seconds as the crystals react to temperature. Tiny liquid crystals inside the film-like material react to heat by changing colors. As science, it demonstrates the way liquid crystal displays work. And you can cut it into pieces to incorporate into a science project. Or just leave it out for guests to play with when the party turns boring.

The Monback Machine

Call it the Monback Machine, an electronic version of the guy directing you while you back in: "Monback, monback, monback, STOP!" You mount the 7-7/8" x 7/8" x 1-1/8" infrared-based back-up sensor near your rear license plate (or on it) and wire it to the reverse lights. A 1" black speaker with 10-foot leads mounts inside the car and beeps as you back up, getting faster and higher pitched as you approach objects. You adjust the triggering distance to a maximum of approx 3 feet. Includes mounting hardware and detailed instructions.

Egg McChameleon

Another gem plucked from the A.S.&S. mirabilia. The shape and size of a hen egg, this opaque stone (or matte-finished glass - we're not sure which) is interesting in itself. Touched with a red penlight in a dark room, the entire egg becomes a brilliant ruby color. Blue light/blue egg, etc. Fun and fascinating, and with a little sleight of hand, a sure way to convince the plebeians that you have some mysterious metaphysical power.
