Blog about science challenge

Hi guys today I am going to talking about science challenge in hurumanu3.

On Wednesday we did this exciting challenge on the big field. So the rules where we had to choose 3 options to message to the receiver and the three option are Flag Signs, Morse Code, Hexadecimal Code and the have to pick one then write anything that you are going to send to the receiver. One person has to go to the far end of the field and they are the receiver and one person on the other side of the field and they are the messenger. 

So the messenger has to do what has written on the piece of paper and you have to follow the written word that the teacher has written on the piece of paper and you have to send the sign to the receiver.

My communication form was Hexadecimal code because it was easy to use and we just had to write what we have to send to the receiver. And the receiver has to approach if it is right or incorrect. We failed the hexadecimal code because it was to hard to explain and we have to listen in science to get everything right.

Thank you everyone for looking at my work.

Navigation In Space?

What is a solar system?

The solar system consists of the Sun, planets, dwarf planets,

moons, and numerous smaller objects such as comets and asteroids.

What is a milky way an example of?

The Milky Way galaxy is part of a group of galaxies called the

Virgo Super cluster. The closest neighbours are the Large and

Small Magellanic Clouds and the Andromeda galaxy.

What is a Star?

A star is a sun and a star is a luminous ball of gas,

mostly hydrogen and helium held together by its own gravity.

Nuclear fusion reactions in its core support the star against gravity and

produce photons and heat, as well as small amounts of heavier elements.

The Sun is the closest star to Earth.

Describe a Nebula?

A nebula is a cloud of gas and dust in interstellar space.

Every nebula contains hydrogen and helium and a mixture of other gases.

Our galaxy has many nebulae and astronomers have found these

clouds in other galaxies as well.

How do stars die?

Stars die because they exhaust their nuclear fuel.

Really massive stars use up their hydrogen fuel quickly but

are hot enough to fuse heavier elements such as helium and carbon.

Once there is no fuel left the star collapses and the outer

layers explode as a supernova and explode everywhere.

Is there an up or down in space?

There is an up and down in space.

Down is simply the direction gravity is pulling you and up

is just the opposite direction. Since there is gravity everywhere in

space, there is also an up and down everywhere in space. If you are

in space and the earth is the nearest object you fall towards earth.

How can stars be used to navigate?

The Navigational Star Chart can be used to calculate

position by finding the circle of position of three separate stars.

The point where those circles intersect is the location of the boat.
