23 Mar
Reflection:
we learnt about the different criteria for life to exist and also the theories people have about alien civilisations such as the Fermi paradox, and the dark forest theory. We also learnt the equations to calculate the probability of alien life existing.
I am not sure how to apply this to daily life
This can be improved by searching more planets and making the equation more accurate
I want to learn about the recent projects on going to other planets.

From this Gravity i have learnt that space is full of unexpected things and that we must train properly before going into space.
22 Mar:
Reflections:
We learnt about the solar system
This can be improved by waiting for people to copy down the slides, adding more diagrams to support your points (eg. pie charts) and making each segment more in-depth and holistic (eg including the oort cloud or an explanation of why things are so, eg the history of each planet)
5 Apr:
Reflections:
We learnt about the uses and different constellatoins
This can be improved by giving an example or teaching the people how to use the constellations to navigate.

We learnt about neutrinos and radiation and decay and chemical stuff. I think its quite fun quite informative and not too complicated.
17 Apr
Reflections
We learnt informative knowledge on the effective usage and the history of different variety of space projects as well as how to use Kerbal space programme better. We learnt various techniques of how to use the different features and better construct a rocket for our benefit of learning. I learnt how to effectively use KSP to aid in my future projects relating to space exploration and I find this session extremely informative and intriguing.
24 Apr
Reflections
We learnt to use kerbal space programme and I found the demonstration from Kai Jun to be extremely enlightening and informative. Despite not being present for around half the lesson, I have learnt much from this activity, such as how to better use Kerbal space programme and how it applies to how rockets function in excelling space exploration. A light shone upon me as I understood more deeply how rocket science aids in space research and the progress of mankind.
26 June

We learnt about the different trips and the knowledge imparted from the astrochallenge sharing. I also revised the keplers laws from astro olympiad. I also learnt about kepler's first law (every orbit of a planet has the sun at one of its foci), kepler's second law (at equal time sweeps out equal area of the orbit), the kepler's third law (t2 = a3) and the hoggman thing about changing ecentricity of orbit
21 Aug
Reflections
We learnt about the different uses of radio telescopes and that it can be used to make many astronomical discoveries like how to find pulsars and the background microwave radiation. I learnt that radio astronomy can also be used to in many practical purposes like the radio stations and we can do fox hunting by comparing the intensity of the radio signals to determine how close we are to the radio transmitter. We can compare the intensity by looking at the decibels and using P to remember the highest intensity of the radio we have recieved. I think that this can be applied to many useful astronomical research.
26 Feb
We learnt about solar flares and how it can impact systems like GPS and cause radiation poisoning in astronauts
12 mar
We learnt about water in space and I learnt much from the presentations from the other groups on good engaging presenation techniques.
