Life on Mars Science

Hello readers for the last couple of weeks we have been working on Science I read a story and it was about Mars and then we had to do some questions the story was called Starryteller and the author was Clare Knighton and these are the questions we had to start and this is what I made. Please leave a comment on what I could change or what I could do better.

In your own words, summaries what happens at the Mars Desert Research Center.
The research center is in the desert in Utah and it is a station that people work at and some live there it is kinda like Mars and they have to wear spacesuits and a helmet they live in a thing called a hab and it is where they spend there time in there discovering new things.

What did Haritina find difficult about being at the research center? She found the job difficult because she had to stay for 24/7 and that means that she had to stay there for twenty four hours and she wasn't aloud to leave.
Why? Because she had to work everyday and for 24 hours and was getting difficult.

Why do you think it is important for astronauts to practice in an environment like this before heading into Space? I think it is important to people to practice in space because they might want to go to space and they are going to need experiences so they don't die and they will be safe.

2. Oil A sticky gas
3. Natural Gas a gas used for cooking food

Write a paragraph and upload an image about each of these renewable energy.

1. Solar denoting energy
2. Wind Means a moment of air 
3. Waves means a movement in the ocean 
4. Hydro means a power plant

Write a 6 sentence reflection about what you have learnt about Climate Change and how it is going to affect us.  

Science

Today we did science and we watched a video. The video was about a department education programme and we watched the video. Here is the link to the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8u4XgAX3QtY&feature=youtu.be 

• What animals keep our jackets warm? Sheep produce wool and then we get warmer clothes.

• Why are bees dying? Because insecticides poison them.
• What do bugs do to our leaves? They eat them.

If you can please send me some feedback on what I could do next time in my blog post.

• Reduce  Means make a smaller or less in amount degree or amount 

• Reuse means you can reuse the stuff that you can reuse like plastic bags.

• Recycle means to put your rubbish in the bin and then we can help the animals
