Astronomy

Mr. Haselden’s astronomy class is studying the moon and Earth.  For the first project, the students designed a model of any object in our solar system.  Their models will hang in the classroom and dazzle the other students.

Here we have Elias.  Elias pitied our former ninth planet – now a planetoid – Pluto and thought it should be represented in the classroom.  Pluto is the only binary system within our solar system.  In the photo Pluto is shown with one of its moons Charon (to scale).  Two hands for safety, Elias!
