Summaries

The Science of Rockets was about how rockets are made and how they work. there are three stages to a rocket, Atlas, Centaur, and Payload. The Atlas uses both solid fuel boosters and liquid fuel engines to launch the Payload into space. The Centaur uses liquid fuel engines to maneuver into proper orbit. And lastly the Payload, the Payload is a satellite or spacecraft carried by the rocket.

The Space Program was about NASA, NASA stands for National Aeronautics and Space Administration. NASA has made a few landings on moon and trips to outer space. NASA had a launch that went bad when a oxygen tank was disabled. Mission Control sent a LM to pilot the CM. Evan though this incident happen NASA said that wont effect there ideas about going to the moon and other missions up there.

Exploring Space today was about a Satellite that is robot controlled that they can send up yo space so that they don't have to rick lives. this robot satellite can tell temperature, pressure, and air quality. it also has a videophone.

Using Space Science on Earth, was all about how much it cost to go up into space. It doesn't cost much for about 1 dollar each time they make a mission up to space. and they get about 7 dollars back because the more they get the chance to go up to space they find new things there that can make civilization easy on the Moon.

The book Zoom is pretty much observing a object that looks like nothing and predicting what it is, then zooming out from that object to see what it really is. then you can see if your prediction was correct. All my inference's have a prediction of what the object I'm observing is. And then it has the actual object that we were looking at. All of this has to do with perspective.I was looking at all the objects in the book, and making inference's from my perspective.

May i remind you that everyone looks at everything at a different perspective. Yes, i have looked at things and though i was making a good inference, but then I thought again and said to myself "that object may look different if i was looking at it from a different perspective". Now see everyone make different inference's about everything and they may be right, or wrong. Something that alters perspective to the naked eye of a human could be things like glasses, obstacles, the distance you are away from the object, and light.

A scientist that might want to look at things close up may be a normal Doctor, a therapist, or archaeologist. I also predict that all scientist in one point in there career, will have to look at something up close, no Doctor will succeed in his/her career. While my 8Th grade class is studying astronomy we as a cl;ass should be aware of our perspective because if were not we may be making wrong inference's. We should try to look at thing from many of perspectives, not just one.
