Star Wars™ Maker Lab features 20 galactic projects that teach budding Padawans how to become a Master of science, in both the real world and the Star Wars galaxy. Using clear step-by-step instructions and easily-sourced household items, the book guides home scientists and makers through a variety of experiments–from making Jabba’s gooey slime or a hovering landspeeder, to an Ewok catapult and a glowing Gungan Globe of Peace.
In Star Wars Maker Lab, each project’s difficulty level is represented through a series of Yoda heads, which range from simple to more challenging. Full-colour photography describes the household materials required for each project and breaks down the instructions, step-by-step, for an easy-to-follow reading (and making) experience. Project spreads feature famous movie scene stills, character quotes, and trivia, as well as sidebars that guide young makers as they build, tinker, and create, revealing the inspiration behind the Star Wars–themed experiments (“In a Galaxy far, far away...” profiles). A “How It Works” panel breaks down the scientific principles at play in every experiment and an “In our Galaxy” section goes a step further to provide makers with examples of the real-life science found outside their home labs.
