Extra Credit Part I: Hi Science Classes! Here is the Spring Break extra credit for science. You will receive points to add to the Astronomy unit. There are 3 parts. Part I is to watch this movie of the launch of the spacecraft that is taking photos of Mercury. Thanks! Mrs. Almarez

I guess that means MESSENGER IS A GO, REPEAT, MESSENGER IS A GO! :D

Spring Break Extra Credit Part II: Explore parts of Mercury by viewing the mosaic postcards on this website. Comment on diigo about one of the cards that you read. Remember to name the coordinates for the card. ex: I looked at b3 and thought it was interesting that....

In c5, I learned that Mercury darkens over time due to space weathering. When a meteoroid strikes Mercury, the blast reveals the inner layer of the rock, which hasn't been weathered. This makes craters look lighter.

I actually did look at B3, by thinking that it was a good location. I thought it was interesting how in 35 years, we could go from a camera taking very blurry images to taking the most high-def picture to view on my 120 in. flat-screen tv.

Extra Credit Part III: Use Google Earth to view parts of Mercury. Print a page from your screen and bring it to class when we return from spring break!

jinged! BTW, if you want to just take a portion of the page, download Jing from Google. It's free!

i got it to work, also i downloaded a screen cast software

Check it out!

Coming to science class soon!

I can't log into my exmostu account, and it was working before. Caroline K's exmoteam account is inaccessible as well. However, David A's exmoteam account that has not been upgraded still works.

Account info is at school. You guys enjoy tonight's last bit of spring break, and we'll check this tomorrow!
