Space Presentation

 Thank you, Pastor Buckhahn, for the great presentation on the Space Program.
 The class learned so much about space exploration. 
Mercury and Gemini had many missions before Apollo.
 The class learned about how much competition existed between the USA and USSR.
 Pastor Buckhahn shared so many important historic details about space travel.
He brought books, pictures, articles, and models.
 The Russians sent a dog into space.  The US sent a chimp into space.
 This class can't wait until the trip to DC in 8th grade!
Students will take a trip to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum.
 Ask our students about roll, pitch, and yaw.
Spacecraft needed to control these 3 movements to be successful.
 Pastor Buckhahn is a walking museum of facts!
Thank you to the members of Apollo for all the accomplishments that make the USA so incredible.
