Canadian Space Agency - Top 10 Finalists
http://www.asc-csa.gc.ca/eng/missions/expedition34-35/science-challenge/Default.asp
"On December 19, 2012, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield blasted off for a five-month mission aboard the International Space Station (ISS) during which he and his crew will perform some 130 Canadian and international experiments."
Congratulations to the students from our class who participated in the Great Canadian Space Agency Challenge. They voluntarily gave up recesses and lunch hours to plan and perform an experiment that could be performed in space. Our submission was one of the top ten finalists from across Canada. Open the above link to see our results.
In September 2012, the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) invited young Canadians under the age of 19 to design their own science experiments only using items already available on the space station.
A panel of scientists, engineers and astronauts picked the best submissions from across Canada.
The following students are to be commended for their effort and enthusiasm: Amanda Reynolds, Aidan Ryan, Mackenzie Rolfe, Catherine Beauchemin, Katherine Mann, Luke Seely, Kyle Irwin, & Kove Sartor. Special thanks to Olivia Rodriguez who videotaped our experiment for Youtube.
