It celebrates Canadian achievements in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) by bringing together hundreds of events and science outreach leaders. Science Odyssey delivers fun, engaging and inspiring activities to Canadians of all ages, but is particularly geared towards inspiring and engaging youth—the next generation of science leaders. Science Odyssey brings together government, universities, colleges, polytechnics and institutes, science centres and museums, libraries, schools and educators, parents, and in particular, Canadian youth interested in STEM. In its first edition in 2016, Science Odyssey mobilized 341 partners from all of these sectors, who organized 626 events in 222 cities and communities across Canada. Canada’s largest STEM celebration is powered by NSERC, a federal agency that is the focal point for discovery and innovation in natural sciences and engineering and ensures Canada is producing major discoveries and world-firsts in cutting-edge, high-impact domains that will shape the world we live in. ----------- LYRICS Pigeons and doves coo They're not two birds but one from a deeper view With life that always holds true One descent but if you only knew How clearly Gulls and geese have had their roots revealed More than birds The fossils have the clues to make it real By the mid-Jurassic they had warm bodies And hollow airy bones What would you do If raptors grew wings and flew More than birds the stones reveal Archaeopteryx is real What would you say If I told you birds convey More than eggs and tasty stew They're a strain of dino too More than birds How could life give rise to Cockatoos from such a monstrous plan Selection pressure substitutes their Jumps for glides To powered flight it tends Adapting or T-Rex's feathers and wishbone More than birds By oviraptor's breeding can be shown Cause like birds they laid their eggs sequentially And sat on them to grow What would you do If you died while stuck in goo? More than birds in amber sealed Dino plumage is revealed What would you say If our rooks and birds of prey Are the ancient kings made new Cause they're avian dinos too More than birds -------------- THANKS TO: Bruce Mount, Donal Botkin, Aaron Kannan Warnongbri, david adler, Jeffrey Cooper, David Strong, The Schalick Family, Grant McCracken, Yonatan Zunger, Tiberus Quadson, Alex Karantza, Jeff Shaevel, Tybie Fitzhugh, John & Frank Lampert-Hopkins, Walter Smith, Theo Cooper, Alexander Buchanan, Elliott Sumers, C.
