MISC: MAY THE SCIENCE BE WITH YOU “Do. Or do not. There is no try,” says Master Yoda. Fitting advice, it is, for anyone contemplating a trip to Desert Research Institute’s Star Wars-themed celebration of science and pop culture, May the Science Be With You. The research nonprofit has partnered with the National Atomic Testing Museum to offer interactive demonstrations, hands-on activities, lab tours with DRI scientists and live music from local instrumental band Peaceful Retreat. The idea is to get young Padawans interested in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) and spark their curiosity in those types of careers. Encouraged, costumes are. 4 p.m., free, Desert Research Institute, dri.edu. –Shannon Miller
