Last Saturday Alten and I headed up to the Armstrong Air and Space Museum to participate in an learning event focused on the International Space Station. Using big boxes we envisioned and build modules for the mock ISS. Alten and I built a mechanical systems module, an airlock, and a robotic arm. They were all awesome.
Then Sunday Margo and Isaac joined us, and together we added a food storage module. Other kids built kitchen, bedroom, library, and hydroponic modules. It was great.
There were also videos running about life on the ISS, electronics experiments, food raising demonstrations, and other cool examples of the complications of living in space.
Check out the facebook page for the Armstrong Museum (go down to the August 29 post) and the mobile photos part of the facebook page for more of them. We'll post our own here when we get them off our phones :)
