Jared has had such an excellent week – he has worked so hard, and was so pleasingly engaged in class, that after a quick summarization of where he is with the long-term project, we spent the rest of class discussing various aspects of science. Jared would ask a question, and then we'd discuss the subject. One question had to do with the terminator on the Earth, separating daytime from nighttime, so I thought it might be interesting for Jared to see the video from Apollo 8, when humans first left the gravitational field of the Earth and circled the Moon – the astronauts' view of the Earth when they came round from the far side for the first time was breathtaking. (We never finished the video, Jared had so many insightful questions! We'll continue next week.)
