Hawaii Science Fair II: Winners-Plus

Today, I thought I’d run some pix of a few semifinalists at this year’s State Science and Engineering Fair, along with winners if I have their pictures.

First Place in Senior Research went to Kang Ling Liu of St. Andrews Priory for “New Triangular Inequalities in the Form of s-a, s-b, and s-c” (whatever that means).

Kang Ying will be headed to the Intel International and Science Fair, May 9-14 in San Jose.

I wanted to show the Junior Research winner’s display; unfortunately I don’t have a picture of it. The first-place winner was Viola Mocz of Mililani Middle School for “A Fossil Model for Robotic Fish: Learning from Evolutionary Hydrodynamics to Design Better Underwater Vehicles.”

At least I understand what her project was about.

Here are a dozen semifinalists. They sure make my intermediate school science fair entry (ant farm) look amateurish!

The students, their teachers and their parents must be mighty proud of their accomplishments. I know I am.
