I took a trip to the Smithsonian Air and Space Musuem and it was so boring. We saw that on other trips we went to. It was cool when we went pass the White House. Other then that the whole trip was boing. They had the planets in there and everything we already saw. They had air planes and a space ship. Well to end this up the trip was really not intresting.

Pennsylvania Railroad



I went to the Pennsylvania Railroad Musuem with my summer group. It was boring all we did was look at trains that didn't even show nothing. Then we went across the street to the little stores. Then we couldn't even go on the moving trains. Plus it was so hot. Well to me the trip wasn't that intresting. It wasn't alot of activities for us to do.


On Thursday I went to the Harley Davidson Factory. I saw how they produced the motorcycles. How they went through cycles of putting on piece by piece and how they had to make some of the pieces from steel. It was a long tour but it was a great experience. They motorcycles they make at the factory are already ordered. They only make motorcycles when people order them. I believe they have 3 new colors this year that are out. You can only get a Harley Davidson motorcycle if you have a licence.

The Evolution Of the Space Suit


1. Why wear a space suit ? We humans are evolved to live on the surface of the earth where their is air pressure and oxygen. Space does not have these, so astronauts need to wear a suit that replicated the conditions on the earth's surface in order to survive the vacuum of space.
2. Why are space suits white ? The space suits are white bacause it keeps them cool.
3. Who is the prime NASA contractor for the design, development, and manufacture os space suuits ? ILC Dover, Inc.
4. What does EMC stand for ? Extravehicular Mobile Unity
5. Describe the U.S Navy Mrk IV pressure suit. The Mark IV pressure suit is a for runner for the space suit.

1. I was the first female Shuttle pilot, and, after piloting two missions, I became the first (and currently only) female Shuttle commander. I commanded STS-93, on which the Chandra X-ray Observatory was deployed. My hometown is Elmira, New York. In 2005, I will command the STS-114 Return To Flight mission, which will carry a crew of seven to the International Space Station.

I took a trip to the Septa station where the maps are so they can track down the buses and trains of where they are. Then we went to the place where they fix the buses and where the buses load and take off from. Where the workers take there breaks at. It was intresting but not to the point where I would want to be a bus or train driver. They also get paid a good amount of money to help out there families.
