I'm excited to hear how you saw the Annular Eclipse on Saturday morning. My best shots are at the end of this week's post in the Space Out Friday section.
Make sure to do your work today!

There are a lot of amazing things happening in Space this week. 2 of the most important are the launching of a unique satellite and the Annular Solar Eclipse.
We going to do some activities to go deeper into learning about these two special events all week long.
Do these activities in class on Monday. If you don't finish, we'll continue on Tuesday.
Annular Solar Eclipse - Saturday, October 14, 2023
Launch of Psyche - Thursday, October 12, 2023 at 7:15am
Learn about both events by clicking and watching the videos below
What is a planet made of?
Scientists believe that the inner rocky planets of our solar system have a solid metal core. That helps to explain the strong magnetism we have on Earth.
They also believe that the Asteroid Psyche may be the core of a planet that never finished forming. Check out the video below to learn about what we know about the inside of our solar system's planets.
Become a Solar Eclipse Expert
You are going to become certificated Solar Eclipse Apprentices using this online course. Upon completion, you will get a certificate proving that you have passed this course. We will do much of this in class.
