Stardome reacount

Finally as I went into the Stardome it became my favourite place.
As we all entered the Stardome we saw a rocket with Buzz Aldrin,
Neil Armstrong and Micheal Collins going into space.

A girl named Vanessa was leading us to a classroom to tell us
about space and about planets. She told us about the rocky midgets
and gas giants. The rocky midgets are the planets that are small and
the gas giant is the big planets.The big gas giant  planets are Jupiter,
Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and the rocky midgets are Earth, Mercury,
Mars, Venus. Then she showed us a photo of Neil Armstrong and
Apollo 15 landing on the moon.

She gave us ipads and told us to use the information on the walls to
answer the questions. Then we got up to a question really interesting.
The question was ‘what is New Zealand's rocket called?’.
I never knew New Zealand had its own rocket.
When I looked on the
wall I found out it was called Electron and we got the question right.

After that we went to the Planetarium and we had to sit on a chair
and look at the ceiling. Then Vanessa showed us an animation with
little kids building a rocket made out of cardboard.
They said 5,4,3,2,1 whoosh!
The rocket went way up into space and was very loud.
They all got their stuff and a book to know about space.
They discovered that Jupiter is very dangerous because it has
lightning and storm.

The Stardome was the best because I learnt a lot of things.
My favourite part was the Planetarium because we saw the milky way and
I thought it was cool.
