the big question

             Ever since Neil Armstrong first set foot on the moon, the next hurdle for mankind is sending astronauts to Mars. Some of the biggest space companies in the world believe that astronauts should explore Mars as they did the moon. Buzz Aldrin once stated, “Mars is there, waiting to be explored.” Notice that he didn’t say that “mankind should move to Mars because the earth is falling apart”, he said that “Mars is there waiting to be explored.” he didn’t say who should go. That is the real question, ‘Who should go to mars’. Sending astronauts to mars could answer the ancient question, “Are there other life forms on Mars?” In all, Nasa should send astronauts to Mars because there is great potential for the scientific discovery of the ages to be encountered here.

My Space Goals

 

           This semester we are learning about 'Space Exploration' in science and we were asked to write what we are looking forward to learning. I know that I am looking forward to learning more about the Apollo program. I have seen Apollo 13 and 18 so I think ti would be cool to find what was "behind the movies" so to speak. Usually, I'm not really into this whole 'Space' thing, but so far it's been a lot more interesting than I have expected. So I'm really looking forward to the rest of this section.

The five-second rule

          When I was little, we had a thing in our house that if you dropped a piece of food on the floor and it was in the floor for less than 5 seconds than you could pick it back up and eat it. Well, most people had that so called rule in their house at the time. But it doesn't work like you think it does, see, there are germs all over the floor, it's not like they move out of the way when a piece of food starts to fall. The second the food hits the ground, it is covered in germs. You can't see the germs, but you can see what was on your kitchen floor moments before.

U angry about the election?

         Are you happy about Donald Trump winning the election? Whether you wanted Trump to win or Hillary, the next president is the next president whether you approve of that person or not. Honestly I don't care who they are as a person. I care what they want to do for the country.

Few of Many Fears

      I have a fear of failing at anything (especially sports and school) and spiders. Since I have become a christian, I know that God is with me and I should fear NOTHING. Although I have found that extremely hard, I am still trying and will keep trying to have no fear apart from God.  I like the verse that says you should fear nothing for the Lord your God is with you. This verse has encouraged me so much in my walk with God. Another motivation is that when I was little, I saw the movie star wars and when Yoda said, "Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering." As a little kid, I was so scared about falling to the dark side. But no wI know that the "dark side" is life without God. That line from the movie  is partially true, not taking care of that fear will lead to health problems.

We get computers?!?!?!

     One of the benefits I have been enjoying this year is not having a 20-pound backpack to carry around campus with you because you have this handy-dandy laptop with you that has 99% of your books on it. But if the laptop goes, so does pretty much your entire education for the moment. One thing you can do to prevent this is to back your homework up on a flash drive, that way if your computer goes you can plug the flash drive into another computer and keep doing whatever you where doing, like working on homework.

Story corp

      My english, science,and history teachers have gotten together and assigned this "Story Corp" thing at my school. So we have to pick a person that has more experience than we do and ask them some questions. I think that it is going to be interesting to hear how different times were before I was born.  I have picked my mom for the Story Corp interview. I do not have any questions at the present time but am hoping to soon.
