This morning we...
- Went over the do's and don'ts of soldering. such as don't hand a soldering iron to to anyone put it back in its holster and let them get it.
- learned the difference between a chip board and a bread board. a chip board can have things soldered onto it it a bread board can't. a bread board is more like a prototype.
- soldered resistors onto a chip board.
- learned how to keep a soldering iron in good condition by always making sure that the tip is silver.
- and the importance of soldering
This afternoon we...
- had two guests from NASA come over and explain to us why we should get an internship in NASA
- learned why does NASA needs new young people to work in their facilities. one of these reasons are because 60% of the people in NASA are old enough to retire.
- learned about a meteor that is circling the earth and how close it is to hitting us.
- saw different ways on how to make the meteor avoid hitting the earth. the Russians think we should just blow it up. but a scientist in america thinks we should send a special type of space shuttle that will use the power of gravity to direct the meteor in a diferent direction.
