Term 1 week 9:When we were doing the slides, we had a lot of fun because we started to know each other and have a good time learning the new people. This made my day after a long and tiring day and i learnt things on space exploration when i was doing my research. I will strive to be a person who discovers stuff in space
Term 1 week 10:today we were tasked to present our slides on why we should explore space to the rest of the sec 1 astronomy students and we had fun presenting and we learnt a lot of information from the other slides like the asteroids and stuff. They also showed us competitions that I hope that in the future I will take part in.
Term 2 week 2: We learnt about solar system and the planets in it and after that we tested our knowledge it was fun and helpful as i learnt many things like why pluto is not a planet and it is a dwarf planet. through 2 different planets. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1D4i9J-NsZzPf6N_sJJ2jLrkjVeSaYmdVTd8eU_wYzgA/edit#slide=id.p
Term 2 week 3: Today I learned about spherical trigonometry and have learned a lot about it and we also learned a lot about the formulas and I really think that this will be helpful in the near future. In Sec 2 I think I will use this and many other formulas in the near future so I really think that this lesson is helpful and i don't think this lesson should be criticized that much
Term 2 week 4: we learned about the history of humans learning about the solar system and the vast space and also the 1m altitude rocket before fail and the multiple space station disaster it was fun as I have learned a lot about the achievements humans made in the last millennial and also boost further my curiosity on space.https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1hAzYct5Ll03S1Z0wScdvyJYaRSH9KLY6h7Aph5fwSyw/edit#slide=id.g26ec9bfccfd_0_33
Term 2 week 5: very happy with this lesson as this taught me a lot of things and like the doppler shift and the red shift and blueshift I really like this lesson as it taught me a lot and I want to learn more. I really like the bookletand also the universe building and I really like this lesson I want to learn more. Im happy with this lesson and I want to learn more about the formulas.
Term 2 week 8: Today we learnt electromagnetic and radio transmissiobn on dipole antennas. We actually had some lesson time get gone because of a door being locked and we had to wait outside for 30 minutes and also we learned facts about it. Some words of improvement, the presenter can talk slower so we can copy. I love astronomy.
term 3 week 2: learned about galaxies was fun and I want more of it; I like delving deeper into the mysteries of the universe and discovering its endless wonders we also learned about exoplanets and we had fun doing the blooklet which made my knowledge grow more and also made me want to learn more and learn more about the galaxies.Learning about galaxies was incredibly enjoyable, and I crave more; I have a deep passion for delving into the universe's mysteries, continuously uncovering its boundless marvels
Term 3 week 4: I learned about stellar properties, and it was incredibly engaging. Understanding these concepts not only enhanced our learning experience but also added a layer of fascination to our exploration. Additionally, exploring the Kerbal Space Program (KSP) on Steam was an enjoyable activity that further deepened my interest. Delving into topics like the Pulsation Theory and Luminosity provided valuable insights into the in
Term three week six: i learned about sidereal time and terrestrial and also about astro phenomenon like the solar wind, eclipses and more. I am happy about this lesson. We can improve this lesson by increasing the fun level of the presentations and the interactability of the lesson.
Term 3 week 7 : I studied the accretion disk and the Roche limit, gaining insights into these astrophysical concepts. The accretion disk refers to the structure of rotating matter around celestial objects, while the Roche limit defines the distance at which a celestial body’s tidal forces prevent another from forming a moon.
Term 3 week 8 : today we learnt about nuclear physics, my brain got nuclear fissioned by how amazing nuclear stuff are and thats why I love this. Here are my notes :Atoms = basic form of matter
Electron shells hold up to 2 electrons
They have 3 parts, electrons,protons and neutrons
Electrons-negative change
Neutrons-no change
Proton-positive change
The difference between the atom mass and the sum of the masses of its parts is called the mass defect
The mass defect in nuclear physics stems from Einstein's equation E=mc^2.
Binding energy refers to the energy required to break apart the nucleus of an atom and a measure of the strength of the force that holds the nucleus together.
Radioactivity is the spontaneous emission of radiation from an unstable nucleus as it seeks more stable configuration.
Neutrinos= lightest of all the subatomic particles that have mass in the universe.
Electrostatic repulsion= two electrically charged objects of like polarity
Atomic fission is a nuclear reaction in which
secondary 2
today we learnt about galaxy and solar system and we did a kahoot that tested our knowledge. i also signed up for the astrigue with my friends and we are preparing for the quizizz and the dog pluto isnt a dwarf planet but the dwarf planet is the dwarf planet and universe is made out of dust and gas i like that this presenter was very clear and made me learn alot
Today we learnt about the planets and the atmosphere and we did a blooklet and was fun. it was short though. Tessa was a good resenter and is passionate. I enjoyed the lessons and me and friends were happy.
Today i presented about why we should continue naming the plants after mythological gods which i think i did very well presenting. We also learnt about the moon which we did a blooket about which was very very very very fun. YIPEE also i like todays presenters and they did a good job presenting. MORE YIPEE i might be stretiching this. MORE MORE JUMP i like this cca. YIPEEE IM GOING TO MORE MORE JUMP OFF A CLIFF.
We did bottle rockets and shoot it high and measure the distance from the bottle to the launcher, but i dont know why but the bottle keeps going off course and going somewhere else, i also got sprayed by the water and it got all over my pants. It was very fun though and i wish there is more activites like this in the future. to make the rocket fly higher or further we either angled it or put more pressure. also the more the water the more it fly. Because of newtons third law
Today we had a talk about space weather by dr poh gang kai and he talked about solar storms, CME and sunspots which tells us about heliophysics and its effects on earth and other people. He talked about CME radiation poisoning(cancer causing) and he also gave out free nasa merch(free $2) It cannot be improve its flawless everything was good
today we did a recap about the things we learnt about in term 1. It was very fun and after each topics advaith will ask a question and he will callout people to answer them.My friend is very very bad and they all tried to sabotage me by asking advaith to call my name. I luckily didnt get called. Overall its was still fun and i learnt alot from it.
today we did a board game called Nasa space voyagers the game that did absolutely horrible because of poor planning then after that we learnt doppler shift
