We’re off to the Space Science Centre tomorrow. We have an incredibly busy day of activities and workshops to do which is why we are leaving so early in the morning!

We will be leaving at 8:00

sharp tomorrow so please be

here before that time!!!!

I know it will be a great day!

To get us in the mood, here is a video of the space shuttle launch that happened yesterday. I am sorry that I didn’t know about it sooner as it would have been fun to watch as it actually happened. However, this is the next best thing. The shuttle is in orbit now getting ready to repair the Hubble Telescope one last time before it goes out of commission. The Hubble Telescope has been a higely important source of information and images for us and this upgrade will hopefully extend its power and lifespan before it finally breaks down. So here are the videos. I also included a couple on the Hubble Telescope and the challenges of repairing it.

Here is the poem of the day to end off things here at the blog. We’ll see you all tomorrow!

trip,
tease,
jab,
grab,

Then teacher gives the quiet sign.
Says,
“You two go to the end of the line!”
