Back to the Moon.

Tuesday 2nd June
Today we had a visit by an interactive Science programme called "Back to the Moon". We saw lots of space technology used by the astronauts and we found out how some of it worked. We were told that it was rather difficult to live in the very cramped space module inside the rocket. Did you know that astronauts have to wear nappies?!!
Some lucky students were able to try on some of the suits similar to what the astronauts wear.
We saw models of our solar system and were told that it was not possible to have a model of the sun as it would be too big to fit in the hall!!
What a great show-we learned heaps about the history of space travel and exploration.
