Scientist Connection By: Sarah, Jakob, Jack
Connection: 1st Attempt At first, we have decided to contact NASA. On the proposal, we wrote down some questions we might ask them. The questions were about their Journey to Mars and also how it is like to work at NASA. After we have decided on our questions, we emailed NASA. We have waited for their response, but unfortunately they haven’t replied back. Connection: 1st Attempt
Connection: 2nd Attempt After we have failed to make a connection with NASA, we were a bit confused on what to do. This project is about connection, but we didn’t have a connection to share out. But then, we have decided to contact the Canadian Space Agency. We have kept few of the old questions and made new questions for the CSA. The questions were about their accomplishments, what they are currently working on, and how it is like to work at the CSA. But again, they have not replied to our email. So we have decided to research some of the current and future projects the CSA will be working on in 2018. Connection: 2nd Attempt
Canadian Space Agency In all of 2018, the CSA is working on the Canadian health science experiments. They are going to be conducted aboard the International Space Station. The Canadian experiments that are going to be on the International Space Station are: At Home in Space, Bio-Analyzer, Bio- Monitor, MARROW, Radi-N2, Vascular Echo, and TBone. In April 2018, some Canadian students will be selected to participate in real space missions. They project they will be working on is the Canadian CubeSat Project. Students will design, build and operate their own CubeSat and launch them into space. Between July and October 2018, the CSA will launch three observation satellites to better monitor our planet. In August 2018, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft will begin approaching asteriod Bennu. And in November 2018, a Canadian astronaut named David Saint- Jacques will depart for the International Space Station. He will be set out for the ISS in mid-November 2018 as part of the Expedition 58/59. David’s mission is expected to last for approximately 6 months, until May 2019. This will be David’s first flight, and he is the second Canadian to fly in space after Chris Hadfield’s mission in 2012 and 2013.
The End Thank you!
