Trip to Space Center

On May 1st I traveled to the N.A.S.A. Space and rocket center in Huntsville, Alabama. While I was there I looked at the different exhibits on space ships and mission in the past. But the most interesting was the exhibit on stars and black holes. I asked questions to the scientist that worked there about them they gave me some great information. Iasked him questions on weather he thinks blackholes are effecting the path that we orbit on, he said that it is very possible. I also asked him his opinion on the fabric of the universe and he said that it is flat and that the planets push down creating a sagging effect. He also gave me a pamphlet, on how they spot the black holes. Then I got to go outside and ride the G-force, a ride there that spins you at fast speeds so that you get to feel the power of a slight G-force.

This trip to the space center was very helpful in the knowledge I gained in the subject. Mostly due to the fact that I was able to interact with my subject by getting to experience some what of the feeling you would get when entering a black hole; although the feeling I felt was minuscule compared to the real force of a black hole. Another aspect was that I was able to ask a scientist there some question although he said he was not an expert by any means on the topic he still answered the questions I needed. The over all trip was probably the most I have learned about the topic since we have started it.
