Monday, July 23,2007

Monday was a very busy day tracking down the luggage for the kids, Mrs. Jordan and myself. Basically, we ended up playing the "Riddler" game with American Airlanes.

The kids had an extensive schedule. Breakfast at 7:30 and then straight to the Astrotek for Multi-Axis.

Mrs. Jordan joined the kids at the IMAX to watch "Dream Is Alive". Disney produced this excellent movie focussing on the scientists and technology involved to successfully launch Spirit and Opportunity on Mars. The children were told to share this information with their principals when they return to school.

The children also explored G-Force, Crew Systems, and Mercury.

We heard an astronaut speak at the state-wise PTA conference earlier this year. he explained to the kids how none of them would ride in the Space Shuttle - because that program was being retired, and instead they'd have to be party of the first crew to go to Mars. It was really thought provoking. and then he told the parents they were too old to be astronauts!
