The presentations are at 2 and 4 p.m. and are free with regular Sci-Port admission. Also from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, the center will have its "Humpty Dumpty Meets Leonardo da Vinci" contest, in which participants use engineering skills to build flying contraptions that safely land an egg dropped from Sci-Port's second floor landing.
