Space Escape 2025!

Oh, no!  The spaceship SRV (Scientific Research Vessel) Sapphire is on a collision course with the planet Jupiter! Teams of Sapphire engineers will attempt to access the bridge of the ship in order to alter our course! 

Now is the time to select your teams!  One member of your three-person team should submit the form available in Google Classroom.  These slides will be updated throughout the week!  (The deadline for team submission is 2:00 pm on Fridat, January 17.)
