SOLAR CAR ON EXHIBIT
PrISUm 2, the Iowa State solar car that raced in Sunrayce93, has become part of an exhibit at the Science Center of Iowa.

"We think this is a great way to get the car out into the public so people from Des Moines and all over Iowa can see it," said Jeff Etringer, electrical design director of Team PrISUm.

"I'm enthused about having the solar car," said Dan Jepsen of the center's exhibits department. "It will fit well into our Science Arcade Show."

The Science Arcade Show, which includes more than 40 scientific exhibits, is now open.

PrISUm 2 took 10th place in Sunrayce93, a solar car race from Dallas to Minneapolis.
