Physics students took a trip to American Dream Mall where they got to see the engineering process behind building and loading one of the largest indoor Ferris wheels in the world, the Dream Wheel. They also got to experience the physics they've been learning about all year behind roller coasters, spinning rides, and free fall rides at Nickelodeon Universe.
