Fusion Energy Week honors Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin, an astrophysicist and astronomer credited with the groundbreaking proposal in 1925 that stars are predominantly made of hydrogen and helium. The week is a national event celebrated by all entities working on fusion research. 

At NC State, the Fusion Plasma Auxiliaries Characterization Laboratory in the Department of Nuclear Engineering will host a scavenger hunt as a part of Fusion Energy Week. NC State staff, faculty, postdocs, and students, and the general public are welcome to participate in the scavenger hunt. The fastest team to finish the scavenger hunt will receive a prize.

Registration is required. Lunch will be available.
