They found where it hit a few days ago. The first piece was found on frozen pond but it did not break throught the ice. One piece was just over 300g and another was 200g (it was on the local news last night but I can't find the video) http://technology.sympatico.msn.cbc.ca/News/ContentPosting?newsit...

Meteor caught on tape

Last week there was a meteor that lit up the sky over western Canada. I unfortunatly missed it as I was at the hockey game but it was caught on the police dashboard camera in a community 15 minutes from where I live. If the link doesn't work, look under Edmonton Meteor and there are several differen...

Actually, since he's going to 8 day ASA, the final mission will be 24 hours (unless they have since changed that). I did the 24 hour mission in 2004 and it was awesome. You're in for a great time.

My parents never went to any of my graduations (I am also from the same region of Canada). I always had someone in the row behind me take a picture of me getting my wings at grad. Just make sure her dad has a camera for the graduation so he can take the picture of her getting her wings.

I was quite shocked when I heard the news. I have read many of his books and he is one of my favourite authors and Jurassic Park is one of my favourite novels.

First (and only) time I saw it was during late departure at Christmas camp. We wanted to watch Spacecamp but the counselor brought out the wrong movie. But he was nice and got us discounted snacks from the ward room.

As an adult you'll be allowed to roam until the first scheduled activity. They will tell you when and where to meet your team.

Space Camp and Stargate Atlantis

So during the writers strike this past winter I rediscovered the TV show Stargate SG-1. I had on occasion watched it before but not regularly. I started watching Atlantis shortly after. In an upcoming Atlantis episode (I'm really not sure when it will be on as they just finished filming it today) Dr...

How time flies...

I realized yesterday that this week is 7 years since my first trip to camp (and 6 years since my second time as I went the same week 2 years in a row). I can't believe it's been that long! It seems like yesterday that I was arriving in Huntsville for the first time and falling in love with the place...

I could have used one during my 24 hour mission when we slept in the shuttle. The "sun" rising woke me up just as I was falling asleep.

Seeing A Time for Courage is a must. I still remember my counsellor Michelle taking us (my 2nd trip to camp - didn't see it the first time) and then afterwards saying something like "now that I remember how bad it is I won't make you watch it again". I actually have a copy of it plus a few...

So I just got the old SCB in the mail. Bought it off of ebay. She now sits by my astronaut cabbage patch doll.

The new SCB has been delayed until August. I still haven't decided if I'm going to get it since the shipping quote I got from the Space Store is expensive.
