“To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk “To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.” —Thomas Edison (1847-1931)

A Rube Goldberg machine is a comical, complicated invention that performs a simple operation. Mealtime can be messy—but not with this self-operating napkin thought up by cartoonist Rube Goldberg!

Go through steps 1 to 11 to see how the thief was nabbed! Need to catch a bike thief? Check out this wacky contraption inspired by Rube Goldberg. Go through steps 1 to 11 to see how the thief was nabbed!

Every year, high school and college students compete in a Rube Goldberg Contest at Purdue University in Indiana. Watch this video about the contest: http://www.thorp.k12.wi.us/~goodman/Rube%20website/ Site/Podcast/Entries/2009/4/1_RUBE_GOLDBERG.html

The Big Questions: Who was Rube Goldberg? What is a simple machine? What are two examples of simple machines that could be used in a Rube Goldberg contraption? To find out, read “One Zany Device” on page 20 of the February 1, 2010, issue of Science World.

Project Time! Draw or build a Rube Goldberg machine that can squirt toothpaste onto a toothbrush. Use 10 or more steps, including at least three simple machines.
