Getting your hands wet

This washcloth is really neat. It starts super small (because it's compressed) and then holds water, but when you wring it out in space, it gets your hands wet, because water sticking to your hands [in space] is weird. It actually sticks to your hands instead of flying off or falling.
"It's becoming a tube of water." The water stays around the washcloth and around the hands.

Space Foundation

I finally went to the Space Foundation. At the Space Foundation I learned that Pluto spins over and under the sun and that Venus is dangerous and that Jupiter is covered with storms and that the Milky Way goes around the Earth and other parts and that Pluto swaps with Jupiter's orbit and on Jupiter there are only 10 hours in a day.

Above is an image from the Space Foundation website that shows the big sphere.

Massive Black Hole

The Massive Black Hole is a red spot on the Milky Way. Scientists in Germany studied it. I saw pictures of it, and it was lots of black holes stuck together. It was packed with stars.

My class is going to visit the Space Foundation this month. Here is a picture of space.
