Thursday's note home (10.10.2024)

 Hi Scientists;

Attached are board pics showing today's notes - which give examples from "The Martian" of Newton's Three Laws in action.
The other white board notes are the things to study for tomorrow's open-note science quiz.
All the things we've studied that meet in "The Martian," with the overall theme being how, and why, Earth is an oasis of life while Mars (while it may have, once, had life) is, essentially, a cold and lifeless planet.
'gives a great image of why we study biology and, moving forward with our study of life, why we need to take care of our unique biosphere.

Have a nice Thursday everyone!

PS: There is a look at the extra credit opportunity (an assignment on Radioactive Decay) that will be discussed tomorrow and due next Friday.
