Based on a NASA experiment to see how ants would tunnel in microgravity, ANTWORKS is both educational and fun! The special, non-toxic translucent gel is a tunneling medium for the ants as well as their food and water source! Just add ants (catch your own or order from the information provided) and watch as they create a fascinating 3-D tunnel network in the gel. ANTWORKS provides a hassle-free way to witness the intelligence of these industrious insects. Magnifying glass and special extreme-zoom lens are included for really up-close ant inspection. A 20-page booklet provides instructions as well as interesting and little known ant facts.
