MY YEAR'S WORK
ASTRONOMY- MY FAVORITE PART OF ASTRONOMY MY 8TH GRADE YEAR WAS LEARNING ABOUT STARS, GALAXIES, AND UNIVERSE. I LIKED LEARNING ABOUT ALL THE CONSTELLATIONS THAT GROUP AT NIGHT WITH ALL THE STARS. I ALSO LIKED LEARNING ABOUT HOW TO CHARACTERIZE THE STARS. TEMPERATURE, COLOR, SIZE, COMPOSITION AND BRIGHTNESS. http://http//www.coseti.org/images/astronomy_2k2_1.jpgWEATHER AND CLIMATE- MY FAVORITE PART OF WEATHER AND CLIMATE WAS LEARNING ABOUT THE WIND, AND HOW IT WORKS. LIKE HOW THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF WIND HELP AIR PLANES AND GLIDER PLANES GET TO THERE DESTINATION FASTER AND USE LESS GAS. WIND CAN BE MEASURED BY A ANEMOMETER.
GEOLOGY- I CANT REMEMBER MUCH FROM GEOLOGY, I REMEMBER GOING ONLINE AND DOING A ACTIVITY ON GEOLOGY I THINK... I REMEMBER LEARNING ABOUT PLATE TECHTONICS, AND SEA FLOOR SPREDING. SEA FLOOR SPREADING IS WHERE THE SEA FLOOR IS BEING SPREAD APART TAKING THE COTENINETS WITH THEM, DUE TO NEW CRUST BEING ADDED TO A MID-OCEAN RIDGE. THAT WAS FUN.http://http//www.lawrence.edu/dept/geology/qtz.jpg
WEATHERING AND EROSION-I REMEMBER THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF WEATHERING, MECHANICAL AND
CHEMICAL...MECHANICAL MEANING WHERE ONE OBJECT PHYSICALLY WHERES AWAY AT ANOTHER. AND CHEMICAL BEING THE ONE THAT IS BROKEN DOWN BY CHEMICALS. EROSION IS THE REMOVAL OF ROCK PARTICLES BY WIND, ICE, WATER, OR GRAVITY. EROSION IS A BIG FACTOR TO THE ROCK REMOVAL ON EARTHS SURFACE http://grandbaynerr.org/images/Erosion_site03.Grand_Battures.20041201.detail_of_land_slumping.2.jpg
EAR
TH'S WATERS- THIS IS THE MOST RECENT SUBJECT IN SCIENCE THAT WE HAVE BEEN LEARNING. MY FAVORITE PARTS OF THIS SUBJECT WERE LEARNING ABOUT WATERS SUPPLY AND DEMAND, IF YOU REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO IT, YOU'LL NOTICE THAT HOMES AND INDUSTRIES USE SO MUCH WATER. WE DEMAND MORE THAN WE CAN SUPPLY. 97% OF EARTHS WATER IS SALT, SALT WATER ISN'T GOOD FOR HUMAN USE. http://nees.oregonstate.edu/killer_wave/wave.jpg

Manitou and Colorado Water
Colorado, Manitou Springs Water
75% of water that Colorado Springs gets comes from Leadville, Breckenridge, and Aspen. Pipes transfer the water from those areas to Colorado Spgs. The other 25% comes from surface water sources and ground water sources that are close to COS. It takes about 200 miles for the water to get to COS. The water is very pure because it comes from the snow and the snow is a very pure water source.
Manitou Springs gets its water from the snow melt up in the Rocky Mountains/Pikes Peak. The water travels through many rivers and streams. On it's way to MS it picks up many minerals harmful and helpful.
