Wishlist Wednesday: AHHHHH I NEED THIS SO BADLY edition

This post may contain affiliate links. See our Privacy Policy and Affiliate Information page.

If y'all have read this blog for awhile, you know I'm a science nerd. I majored in physics. I've had a lifelong love of science. This week's Wishlist Wednesday is a science item that I've wanted pretty much my whole life and yet have never obtained. 

I have ALWAYS wanted a plasma ball. My first experience was when I was in elementary school when one of my teachers brought one in. 

I was immediately fascinated. Touch it, and the plasma touches you through the globe! 

It doesn't look like much. It's a globe filled with a clear, inert gas. 

It's run by batteries or a power cord. 

I can't get enough. I want one. I MUST HAVE ONE. 

 

What did you major in?

I remember those! I never had one, but always thought they were cool. Haven't seen them in forever, what a nostalgic reminder!

They're still the coolest!

I remember seeing and playing with these as a kid at stores like Spencer's. They were always so cool and fun!

Oh man, I remember the Spencer's Stores. I wonder if there's still any around.

That's it, now I have to have one, too! I remember how much fun these things were every time I'd see them in a novelty store in the mall. :)

I am completely fascinated by those as well! They have them in the science museum where I live. I should go back and touch it...

I must be too old. I have never heard of a plasma ball. Looks fun, though!

Oops. Seemed like I missed a big part of childhood as I didn't get to play with those at all! They seem like so much fun though.

I'm not sure how long they've been around. The first one I remember seeing was in my 5th or 6th grade science class.
