Day 8

Sunday 22 June 2014

A 7:00 am Didgeridoo wake-up call brought the campers to breakfast Sunday morning on Jelm Mountain (oatmeal, bagels w/cream cheese, fruit, granola bars).  After a morning of rest we went back to the classroom to classify our chosen stars.  Such classification tells us about the temperature, mass, and radius of the stars.  We also checked our petri dishes to check for signs of life from the soil samples collected on Friday's hike.  The first evening activity was building electrical circuits and in the second activity we learned how light intensity depends on distance from the light.
