day tres

Well . . . we were scheduled to fly three teachers today, but the weather didn't cooperate. We made the best of it by taking jumping pictures on board G-Force One (don't know whose idea that was). he he. We then made our way to Space Center Houston. It was my first time to see the wooden space shuttle modeled after Explorer. And then we were able to have a teleconference with a real NASA researcher in Hawaii.  They are building rovers to look for water beneath the Moon or Mars' surface.

We aren't experiencing this alone-Utah State, Colorado, a school from Delaware, and a university in Pennsylvania are here with us. Plus, real NASA researchers will be on board. Tomorrow is the day . . .
