This past Thursday, our electricity class and the solar car team took a field trip to the Huntsville Space Center! We explored the various exhibits in the museum and experienced the different rides ,including the G-Force and the Space Shot. We viewed an imax movie and visited the gift shop! We can't wait to come back next year!

We had planned to take a practice run at our meeting last night, but due to rain we had to stay inside and have our at meeting at the school. The meeting started off with a friendly competition between the guys and girls to see who could change a tire the fastest. Guess who won?......THE GIRLS!! Not really, but both groups had a succesful night and are still improving. Last night was the first meeting for our new team members Adam Chandler and Clark Carlisle. They proved themselves to be quick learners and hard workers.
