Today was the first day of the Mission Control club that will be in charge of making contact with the station!!
Soon they will be in charge of this blog.

We're making Astrolabes to track objects in the sky. As practice, we measured the angle of the sun- most of us got a reading of about 60 degrees at 11:45. (we'll be gathering more data as the project continues.)

Please we need more kids to help and more questions for the astronauts!
