This week we continued to explore the universe. We discovered constellations, astroids, the moon and zero gravity. The class was excited to see astronaut Chris Hendricks teach us how different it is to work, eat, sleep, wash our hair and brush our teeth in zero gravity. They also got to see a space shuttle launch into space and land back on earth. Ask your child if they would ever want to be an astronaut or work in mission control?

The class discovered the sun is the only star in our solar system. We have gotten on our spaceship and gone to the four rocky planets finding Venus very smelly with it's poisonous clouds. Then we carefully flew through the astroid belt heading for the gas planets. We enjoyed riding Saturn's thousand rings and avoiding Jupiter's thousand year storm. Ask your child what planet they found to be the most interesting. Next week we will continue to travel through the universe and see what we discover.
