day 1:
launch preparations!
day 2:
launch!
Unfortunately, our balloon didn't go as high as we wanted it to, and when we finally recovered it, we learned the balloon had a failure and popped at a pretty low altitude, and ended up in a lake in a swamp on Merritt Island. Here's hoping we get to try again. :)
day 3:
Launching water rockets, a tour of the Space Life Sciences Lab, the US Space Walk of Fame museum and dinner with Astronaut Jon McBride!
Mars simulation chamber
Squid and stromatolites!
day 4:
Looking at our balloon videos and exploring the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex! Had an awesome tour guide, touched a shuttle tile, and met a former space shuttle close out crew member!
Popped. Soggy.
VAB!
A huge thanks to Florida Space Grant, University of Florida and SpaceTrek at KSC for all of the awesome things we learned and did during our 2 weeks!
