Dedicated to a great semester of science

Three kids wanted to go on a Interstellar voyage across the galaxy and also the Universe. The mission had astronomical purposes with a dose of meteorology with no exact hypothesis. They were going to use a rocket that used alternative energy by using nuclear fuel which involved Nuclear Fission. The kids had to be careful due to radioactive decay and some parts being flammable. The interior was powered by nitrogen and oxygen. Part of the rocket also ran on solar energy. The new technical electronic system brought the end of an era.

The kids worried because they were launching during a thunderstorm and it was not a tropical storm either. The launch would be a vertical ascent through a storm. The kids also worried about their air mass and if they would achieve proper altitude. They worried about the atmosphere and atmospheric pressures.

Once they made it past the troposphere, they knew they were OK. Luckily they had enough velocity to even make it past the stratosphere, mesosphere, and the exosphere. They even noticed an alto-stratus cloud. The kids were shocked with how strong the gravitational field Earth has. Seeing the Earth from far reminded them it was a shape of a sphere and has a constant rotation.

The kids were able to push out of Earth orbit using escape velocity from their ionized boosters. They did not see any comets during this time. The students were ready for the possibility of leaving their solar system when they passed the moon and realized it was a celestial body. They were able to see a large crater and understand the concept of a solar eclipse after doing a lot of interplanetary analysis.

The kids were shocked to see all the stars that were visible as they appeared to be in absolute magnitude. The kids felt like astronomers viewing the abundant amount of stars. They also tried to grasp the concept of a photosphere of a star. The students increased thrust to increase speed to travel many parsecs since they wanted to travel light years away. To cut the trip short they were planning on navigating through a black hole since they figured they would be traveling at the of speed of light and they would pass by Mars and reach Jupiter where the black hole held its location.

The kids were impressed with how gaseous and gigantic the planet of Jupiter appeared. They knew that when they reached Earth time would be different due to the Theory of Relativity and Einstein's studies on relativity.

Once the students entered the black hole, they were able to observe and record the event and keep it with their data. When they reached the other galaxy they saw several asteroids and a nebula. Meanwhile, the kids ate a very healthy diet of organic foods. The kids were also able to notice a clearly visible white dwarf.

The kids then explored a new planet in this galaxy. When they landed they awoke from their sleeping chamber, packed their gear and observed there was no ocean. One area looked like a desert, however they did find a cavern in a specific region. Stalagmites and and stalactites were found and calcium and carbonate were discovered inside them. High level doses of nitrogen were detected which led to the kids not feeling very eccentric since humans are not anaerobic.

They detected samples of hydrogen, good thing one of the students was a good chemist. This planet of course also had a sphere shape, The topsoil in the valley was uneven. Unfortunately an important resource that was not working was the thermometer, just a standard one that measures Fahrenheit, Kelvin and Celsius. However they did have an accessory to humidity which helped them understand the ratio of H2O in the air at a given temperature to the maximum amount expressed at a percentage.
