Sup Stars!!!!!!!!!!!!

    S-s-s-stars, stars! S-s-s-stars, stars! Yosif peeps of the planet Earth. Today we are going to talk about...can you guess? (uh.....um.....uh.....is it plants?) No, not even close. (aww, I thought I was gonna get it this time!) (sigh) Well, don't worry we still are gonna learn about something super fun! We are gonna talk about STARS!!!

That's SHINYYYYYYY!

Ooooo shiny! Celine, (yes) get back on topic please. (oh                    sorry!) Well these stars have a unique history. Does anyone  even know how stars are made? No, no you don't but I'm gonna tell you right now. Ok so stars are made in a nebula. This is basically a large cloud of gas and dust. The gases in a nebula are hydrogen gas. Hee hee, nebula is a funny word. Anyways, over time, the cloud gets denser and denser and starts getting warmer and warmer. It then starts to spin. Oo Oo Oo! I'm getting dizzy! (ahhhhh!) (fall) (ow!) The hydrogen gas bump into each other. So, basically the faster they spin, the hotter they get!
Like all peeps they have different stages in life. The first stage is the PROTOSTARS. The second stage is the MAIN SEQUENCE STARS. The third is the RED GIANTS. Finally, we gots the WHITE DWARF. Ok now we are gonna talk about the sun! So bright, bright! Uh, uh! So bright, bright! Uh, uh! Our sun is 4.6 billion years old!!!! I know that seems old, but its really not if you r talking about the solar system. The sun is...wait wait WAIT. If we're gonna talk about the sun, we need to give it a name. Ok, we'll name her......Sunny! There we go. Ok, Sunny is only a middle aged star! Sunny is in the Main Sequence Star stage. Sunny will explode in 4-5 billion years! But, no need to fear, we won't be around...here. There I made a rhyme.  It may not be good, but its still a rhyme. 
Ok so now, we have come to the end to my blog. I know, I know its sad but we must go. (wimper, wimper, cry, cry) So I hope you learned a lot. Well here are some awesome pics on space. BYEEE!
Science Fun:)


That's s lot of culurs!



Its like a burst of awesomeness!

Razzmatazz!

    Weebles wabble wabble, but they don't fall down! Why does this happen? Oh hey your here. Ug. JK! You guys know I love you! So our topic is gravity. DUH DUH DUH!!! So what the shmowzow is it?  Well, gravity is kind of hard to explain. They know what it is, but they can't explain it. But they do have a couple theories.
    Sir Isaac Newton had a theory that is still used today. Legend says that he was sitting under an apple tree when an apple fell on his head. Ouchie! Some say that he just SAW the apple fall. But either way an apple fell and he wanted to know how. His theory was that gravity is a force that attracts all objects to one another. So, you may be thinking, "Is that really the only theory? Wow. People just don't care anymore." But do not worry! There are other theories. (I am honestly getting tired of using the word "theories")
    Albert Einstein had the idea that mass and disrence were still important in gravity, but time is also very important. Einstien's theory is really hard to understand. A lot of science fiction movies have been made over Einstein's theory. But Newton's theory was very helpful too cuz it helped discover the planet Neptune. 
     Well that's pretty much what I can tell you about gravity. Again, scientists are still looking for an exact answer. But until then we gotta deal with what we got. I'm gonna leave while you guys are lost in this video. Bye bye my Boosims! Sceince Fun:)

My Trip To Florida!

 So hey peeps of the world! I am am back from a....(wait for it).... Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious trip. We went to Florida, or as Kenneth would say: Floda, to see the Shuttle Launch. But, since NASA was being NASA, they moved the date AGAIN! Do you know how many times they moved it? (si-) Six! They moved it six flubbing times! Well we did do a bunch of other stuff. Here let me tell you in a special sort of way:
MONDAY: Today we went to school and then at night we left to Florida in an American Coach Bus.
TUESDAY: We got to the Retreat Center and we checked into our rooms. My roomies were Taylor and Shelby. Roomies Forever! Then we went to the Kennedy Space Center. It was really coolio to see all the space-y type stuff. We also went on a simulator. But that place was expensive! 8 bucks for a hamburger, sorry again Shelby! I did get a cool mug for 6 bucks, awesomeness!  For dinner we went to Pizza Hut and everybody at my table was being economical. Me, Anabel, Lizzy, Kenneth, Aubrey, and Fatima were sitting at the table. After that we went back to the Retreat Center to go to sleep. But we laughed and talked a whole bunch before actually sleeping! Duh! You think I would go to sleep WITHOUT talking first? Wow. Get your head strait people! JK.
WEDNESDAY: We went to the beach and it was sooooooo fun! I saw 5 dead jellyfish. Me, Fatima, and Kenneth went on a shell walk. Kenneth kept saying he hated the ocean so bad things happened to him. Me and Fatima were pretending to talk to Poseidon, God of the Sea in Greek Mythology (that's for you roomies) and every time Kenneth would go near the water, a huge wave would come over his shoes. LOL! After the beach we went back to the Kennedy Space Center to finish up what we didn't see. We had the dinner buffet that night. Really yummy. Then we went to this little grassy area to hang out afterwards. When we went to the rooms we laughed a lot more, then hit the hay. Oh, did I forget to say we went to Coco Beach? Whoops! 
THURSDAY: We had to go back home today. (sigh) Well, for breakfast we went to McDonald's. We drove and drove and then we stopped at Wendy's for lunch. Well we got back to Shreiner at like 6:30. I got my stuff and went home. That was my Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious trip. Here is a video of what I was gonna see but then didn't. (uhh....) The Shuttle Launch! Enjoy! Science Fun:)
