Connection of Green Book Climate Labs

Summerize Activity 1

Activity one went as planned we got the results we expected. We thought that the black soil would heat up the fastest and that the sand would heat up the next fastest and that the water would heat up the slowest. fWe thought that this would be the case because the suns rays are attracted to black and that water is very hard to heat. We knew that water is hard to heat because of lakes and things dont warm up very fast but hold their heat for a long peroid of time.

Summerize Activity 4

We did not get the data we expected on this one. We thought that the bottles with the black soil would warm up the fastest which it should have. However, this was not the case the one with the sand and the clouds did. However, this is not possible as I described in my previous post about this topic one of the sand and cloud bottle group put their bottle in the sink throwing off results.

Paragraph 3 Summerize About Small Scale labs and Climate project

Small sclae labs help break down the big unknows for us and make them more cromprehanable. If we look at the big picture we can be overwelmed and not understand. However, when we break it down into these small labs it shows us whats really happeninbg and the importance of it. I personaly like small sclae labs because it shows why and how things are happening. Its alot better than reading or being lectured about how it happens.  I could do a small scale project of freezing rain by in the winter when its snowing warm snowflakes by using a heater before they hit the ground to get them to freeze on contact with the ground. Im not sure if this would work but it sounds good.

Bad Astronomy

2 Facts that I thought were right from the movie are:
1)That the comet would vent as it did in the movie. When the sun warms the comet surface it causes gases to go "crazy."
2) There is no gravity on a comet an ordinary person would only weight 12 grams. The asternauts would have not been able to walk on comet without teathers.


2 Facts that I was wrong about:
1) I thought that the sun would burn the persons face like that when the sun light came in contact with his skin. However, the website said it would not happen like that that fast, added for drama.
2) I thought that the asteroid would be going about the speed it was when it enterd the earths atmopsher however it really would have been in the atmopsher for about 10 sec.

A commen misconception:
Bad Moon Rising: Sun is always in the sky even during the day. I thought it was behind the earth.
The Sky at night: Stars actualy emit the colors of the rainbow but look white. I thought the stars just emited white light.
A Step Farther Out: I thought that asteroids hit the earth only every now and then however this is evidence to believe the "snowball" sized asteroids burn up everyday.

work that i wasnt forced to do :)
