A high school student from Fort MacMurray, Alberta, has just won an international science competition called Breakthrough Junior Challenge. Maryam Tsegaye has won a $500,000 award which includes a scholarship, a new science lab for her school, and a prize for her teacher. The challenge was to submit a video that explains a scientific principle.
Maryam explained quantum tunnelling, in a three-minute video.
If you haven't gotten around to learning new science during quarantine and winning an award with over 5,000 competitors, don't blame the pandemic -- just celebrate this student's victory!
Here's a link to an article about this student and her amazing video which is well worth seeing: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/fort-mcmurray-maryam-tsegaye-khan-1.5829840
