  • The Fleet Science Center is proud to announce A Celebration of Science, a new public event taking place on Saturday, May 10, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Fleet in Balboa Park. Originally developed in collaboration with the National Science Foundation (NSF) as part of its 75th anniversary, the event will move forward despite the recent termination of two federally funded NSF grants: “STEM in Your Neighborhood” (SiYN), a $3.7 million dollar grant for efforts in Southeastern San Diego, and subsequent $100,000 NSF event grant. A Celebration of Science will feature community partners, hands-on activities, over 100 interactive exhibits, and multiple screenings of the documentary film "Flight of the Butterflies" in the Heikoff Giant Dome Theater. “This is not the news we hoped to share,” said Dr. Mwenda KudumuBiggs, Vice President of Community Service and Engagement at the Fleet Science Center. “But the Fleet and our SiYN grant partners remain committed to working together to connect everyone in our community to the power of science." Due to the termination of funding, the event will not be free, but the Fleet is offering a significantly reduced admission of $5 dollars to ensure broad community access. Internal resources and resilient community partnerships will make this family friendly celebration possible. “For the last 12 years the Fleet has worked with communities from Escondido to San Ysidro, and they all have stories to tell about science and scientists in their neighborhoods,” KudumuBiggs continued. “With funding being cut and scientific research being publicly devalued, these community stories are more important than ever to inspire the next generation of scientists. A Celebration of Science is our way of celebrating those stories and standing strong for the future we believe in.” The Fleet invites you to ignite your curiosity as we experiment, explore and celebrate science together at this inspiring new event.

  • J Balvin is the stage name of José Álvaro Osorio Balvin. From a very young age he showed his interest and fondness for music, and in 1999 at the age of 14 he found the musical genre of Hip Hop, marking it in such a way that he decided to incorporate it into his life and begin his musical process, which was later joined by reggaeton and R&B. These are different genres, but they have something in common, which is the expression of feeling, of the day to day, of street life, as J Balvin affirms. Being in this process of various musical sources, J Balvin decided in 2002, to turn into the musical world definitively leaving everything behind. His artistic talent is recognized in Medellín for his fluency in interpreting any genre, and this can be affirmed by anyone who has listened to him. This singer with only 21 years of age has participated in Freestyle Championships, in which he obtained the recognition of champion for two consecutive years making it clear that music it’s his thing, and that Reggaeton and Hip Hop are his language. “I consider myself very versatile because I can interpret anything, that is, I measure myself against anything,” and he adds “talent is born with you and with practice you perfect.” Balvin began his musical career with the group MDL Crew. Today he is part of the "Universidad de La Calle", (an association of street artists) which in his opinion “is made up of the best Rap and Reggaeton groups in the city of Medellín. Another friend and colleague who helped him from his beginnings in MDL Crew, and with whom he still maintains a close friendship and working bond is Fat Al, a Colombian artist based in Miami, to whom he owes his stage name ̈ JBalvin ̈ In 2004, he recorded his first solo song, "Panas," a song that talks about friends; with which he ventures into the world of reggaeton. Today, he has 22 songs in total, ranging from his beginnings to the most recent of 2006, among which the following stand out; "Simple", and "La Playa". Throughout its evolutionary process, it emphasizes; that obviously there are certain leaders by whom an artist is guided to go far, but, he clarifies that he was strongly influenced by several American artists such as “Bone Thugs n Harmony”, “NAS”, “Mos def”, and Latin artists such as “Vico C”, “El General”, “Angel Lopez” and “Daddy Yankee”. J Balvin is more inclined towards the composition and interpretation of Reggaeton, since it allows very easy access to the Latin market. However, Rap is what he likes the most,” he clarifies. Balvin is a fresh, young and talented character who projects himself towards a future representative of Hip Hop and Reggaeton, “No one will do for you, what you don’t do for yourself”, is the clause that governs his life, in order to realize himself as an artist and as a person, and in this way get his family ahead and represent Colombia in the musical field.
