International Space Station

Recently, I have grown a great interest in the ISS (International Space Station). I made a whole power point on it, but sadly I was not thinking and made it on my school gmail account. As you know, you cannot copy and paste a power point, so I cannot show you...
It is a very interesting subject, and you will want to know more once you start researching about it.
Here are some links to get you started:

Antarctic Ozone Smaller

The Antarctic Ozone is smaller than average this year. It could just be a seasonal difference, or it could be global warming.... Opinions?

Mt Rainier at Night

A few days ago, I went to Mt Rainier to go stargazing. It did take a lot of time going to and back from Mt. Rainier, but it was definitely worth it! There were so many stars- I nearly forgot about the cold. I saw so many stars I had never even heard of, although I did see a few constellations I could recognize. I took some pictures but it didn't come out as well as the real thing...

 

MH4

Tried to make the plane more eco-friendly (as one of my goals is to design eco-friendly planes one day) by increasing the scale factor of wings, rudder, horizontal stabilizer, and propeller so the engine could use less energy while in flight.

MIG-21

Here is one of my edited designs (I'm sorry I do not have the original form, I forgot to save it. Although you cannot really see the difference of the designs...) It is the MIG 21, a jet fighter aircraft. To give you a quick summary of what kind of "war plane" it is, it was the most produced supersonic jet in aviation history. It started being developed in the 1950s and was a successful Soviet aircraft.

And my design:

Aviation Designs

One of my new hobbies lately is to edit other peoples' designs of planes. It may sound odd at first but it is actually really fun- similar to solving a puzzle. It makes you think about how a plane really works, and how you could improve it. Right now, I am only at the step of studying other people's designs, but soon I think I will try designing some myself.

National Geographic

A little earlier, I was looking for a good website without annoying ads, viruses, and most important- wanted news articles about space with proof. This is when I found out that National Geographic had not only worldwide news articles, but a whole section about space. I always had interest in National Geographic magazines, and believe that the articles have definite proof. So, if you are looking for a good website about outerspace, I would definitely recommend National Geographic.
