Paper instruments that bring science to everyone
Professor Manu Prakash, a physicist and inventor, is creating low-cost scientific instruments that kids can use to do real science -- including a microscope folded out of paper that costs about 100 rupees to make, and a paper centrifuge that costs even less and works like instruments that cost thousands. "Science is not meant only for an exam or the lab," he says. "Science is meant to be in your homes, in your kitchens, and in your heart. If we all make science a part of our lives, we can probably change a lot." (In Hindi with English subtitles)
