How to get to Mars

Aim: To learn about Mars exploration.

1. Rover facts 

2. Design, Draw and Make a Rover

3. Mars facts

1. Rover facts: 

What are the 5 parts for? 
Link: Rovers 5 parts

Fill in the table below.

Name: Ryan	Purpose:
Wheels	To travel and get across hard terrain and needed to take an image around Mars.
Solar Panel	To generate energy from the son.
Laser	To cut through the rock.
Camera	To take an image from Mars and send it back to earth.
Shovel, rock pick,drill	To search for water underground and in the rock.

2. In groups of 3 you will Design, Draw and Make a Mars Rover out of Lego Technics.
Materials:

1. Lego Technics
2. A4 paper
3. Pencil
4. Ruler
5. Eraser

The drawing and model must have:

• 6 wheels
• 1 camera
• 1 tool at the front than includes a shovel, pick and drill.
• 1 solar panel
• 1 laser that points at the ground

 ( Take a photo and upload  your mars rover onto your blog.)

3. Mars Facts

Link: Facts

You will need to find out the following:

Fact	Earth	Mars
Picture of planet
Length of 1 year	365 days	687
Length of 1 day	24 hours	1d 0h 37m
Distance from the sun	149.6 million km	227.9 million km
Distance from Earth.	54.6 million km	54.6 million km
Gravity:	9.807 m/s²	3.711 m/s²
Colour:	blue	reddish
Temperature	-88 to 57 C	minus 125 degrees C
Rainfall	39 inches	518 mm
Atmosphere	Nitrogen Oxygen Others	Carbon Dioxide  Water vapour
Surface	510.1 million km	144.8 million km
Moons and names	Moon	Phobos Deimos

Conclusion: Write about what you have learned.

I learnt heaps of new information from the tables. I really like learning about space, but I didn't know that much information. It was really fun and cool to blog about this topic. I mostly learnt about the parts of the Mars 2020 rover. I was astonished by the cameras of rover Mars 2020.

The Feet and the Height

THE FEET CAN MEASURE THE HEIGHT

The bones of the feet can tell a lot about a person. What do feet reveal about a person's height? Forensic anthropologists team up with law enforcers to help solve crimes.

Bones of the feet can reveal an interesting fact about an individual. Let's combine math with forensics to see how.

Aim:  To use forensic science techniques to measure the height of a criminal.

Material:

1.  Metre ruler. 
2. Peson to mesure.
3. Feet to mesure.

Steps:

1.  Mesure the height. 
2.  Measure the feet.
3.  Write down the Cm height.
4. Write down the Cm feet.

Findings:

Name	Foot  (cm)	Height (cm)
Ryan	22	152
Lasa	28	174
Niko	26	166

Asia                        27                                          168

Divide the length of each person's foot by his/her height. then multiply it by 100. 

Conclusion: Today in home chemistry we measured our height and feet. My group was Nikora, Asia, Lasa and I learned that our each other height and feet. I learned that this is about solving crime too. It's pretty cool that it can solve some crime too.
