Space Day

Space Day July 2011

The girl scout leader sent us a note about Space Day in Austin. So we went downtown to the AT&T conference center and participated in several science experiments - like running on ?goobleck? - weird stuff made with cornstarch. Jamie and James were on Channel 8 news tonight. Anne helped make a pretty orange lava lamp using alka seltzer. Both the girls had fun with circuits as well. We saw moon rocks and star charts. We also went back later and found the discovery dome with the planetarium movie. I stayed and listened to the Astronaut Rick Linneham speak. I am all excited about space stuff now. I didn't realize Austin didn't have a planetarium yet but it's coming!
