Mission X News

Team Biggar are improving Base Station Walkback each week. We did it at cross country based on the running. The distance was about 1 and a half miles. We all managed to complete the run being timed. It took about 10 minutes for the fastest runners! Astronauts might need to walk long distances in space.

Primary 5 in Biggar found out about the Big Bang Theory and three creation stories. The creation stories were the Chinese story of Yin and Yan, the Hindu story of Lord Vishnu and the Christian story about the world being created by God in seven days. We all came to our own conclusion on the amazing Big Bang Theory.

Primary 5 in Biggar Primary, Scotland are taking part in Mission X as part of their Space project this term. They class have split into teams with each team taking responsibility for one fitness activity. Our team names are Shining Stars, Super 6, The Astros, Dollicky Does, and The Amazing Astronauts. Our team experts have made sure everyone is completing the activity, giving their best effort and they understand how the activity prepares astronauts for the journey into space. And of course everyone has fun!

"Spacig" ging es heute in der 3a bei den Baeronauten zu. Mama von Mixi, Mission X-Weltraummüll, Marsmännchen und Co - lustig, unterhaltsam und ideenreich waren die Verkleidungen.
Meteoritenschauer wurden von der Erde über den Mond zum Mars geblasen, Astronautennahrung wurde verfuttert und "Der Mann im Mond" ist der neue Hit in unserer Klasse!

We set up strength stations in the gym hall in order to perform a variety of weight bearing exercises. These included, squats and pulses, the plank, push ups, wall presses and the tug of war. We commented upon the effect these exercises had on our bodies during and after each exercise. We then recorded these effects in our mission logs.

The Flying Sausages busy with "Reduced gravity, lower fat"

Heute hatten wir einen tollen Tag.Wir wurden von Peter, des Mission X Teams, besucht. Er hat uns das Plakat von Astrocharly mitgenommen und uns Interessantes über den Weltraum erzählt. Das Highlight war jedoch eindeutig der Flug zum Mond und zum Saturn.
Auch die Erde so betrachten zu können wie es die Astronauten machen war ein spannendes Erlebnis.

Augen, Hände und dabei reden - es war eine gelungene Teamarbeit der Baeronauten, die wirklich die volle Punkteanzahl verdiente!

COMUNICATO STAMPA

Le due squadre dell'Istituo A SPACE e CURIOSITY si affronteranno in dieci sfide spaziali di cui cinque saranno prove prevalentemente ginniche e misureranno la preparazione fisica e le altre cinque saranno prove, orali e scritte, che misureranno la preparazione sugli argomenti di scienze legati all'alimentazione e allo scheletro. Alcune sfide si svolgeranno in lingua inglese.
Ciascuna classe formerà dei gruppi ognuno dei quali parteciperà almeno a due sfide (di cui una ginnica e una no). Le sfide verranno comunicate alle squadre soltanto una settimana prima dell'incontro, quindi è importante essere preparati su tutto!

Verrà assegnato un punteggio a ciascuna prova in base al tempo, alle risposte corrette, all'impegno e al lavoro di squadra manifestato durante il gioco. La giuria sarà composta dai docenti di scienze, di inglese e di educazione fisica e il loro giudizio è insindacabile!

「SPACE　TOGO」愛知郡東郷町
平成２７年２月１３日（金）
SPACE TOGOの本日のミッションは、「クルーのストレングストレーニング＆スペースウォーク」！
準備運動はもちろん「とうごう体操」！宇宙飛行士の筋力トレーニングに習い、真剣な表情でスクワットや腕立て伏せ、宇宙遊泳をイメージして両手両足歩きにチャレンジ！少しずつクルー同士の仲も深まり、チームらしくなってきました。みんなで楽しくチャレンジを続けていくぞ！

"SPACE TOGO" in Aichi　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Friday, February 13, 2015
Today's mission for us, SPACE TOGO, was "Crew strength training” and “Do a space walk!".
After warming up with the TOGO TAISO daily exercise, we emulated the set of workouts that are practiced by astronauts, such as squats and push-ups, learning from instruction pictures. Everyone looked very serious in doing the exercise.
We then tried the spacewalking, which we crawled on hands and legs in the image of walking in space.
Through these activities we grew friendship between crews and became more and more aware of our teamwork. We will continue to enjoy this challenge together with the crew members!

Per la II A dell'Istituto Comprensivo "G. Pascoli" di Matera inizia la sfida: agilità, coordinazione, velocità e...tanto entusiasmo!!

Die Shooting Stars haben fleißig an ihrer Ausdauer trainiert. Wir haben den gesamten Turnsaal ausgemessen und berechnet wie viele Runden die 1600 Meter benötigen. Dann haben wir trainiert und uns immer weiter gesteigert. Schließlich haben fast alle die verlangten 1600 Meter geschafft. Bravo Shooting Stars!!!

Wir haben hier 2 Missionen zusammengezogen, die Weltraumakrobatik und die Schwerkraft mit den Medizinbällen. Die Kinder sind bei den Medizinbällen noch auf viele andere Ideen gekommen wie zb Liegestütze auf dem Medizinball

Über die Semesterferien bekamen meine Schulkinder die Mission als Hausaufgabe. Leider waren einige Kinder krank, die anderen haben sich aber tapfer geschlagen und sind mehrmals zur Schule und zurück gefahren

300 students from Hockerill trained like astronauts on their February 11th launch day organised as part of the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme day organised by Mr Vine and Mr Pollard. Teachers arranged a full day of space activities including - fitness, science, and careers events. Students had a mission x passport and they recorded their activities. Students took their pulse and checked on how the exercise affected their heart rate. Thanks to the PE staff who led the activities in the cold!

Students at the Royal Aeronautical Society Mission X Launch day had an opportunity to see how 3D printing is transforming engineering in space. See how the MIssion X badge looks in 3D.

Trois activités de plus pour les élèves de Mission Apollo ! Endurance lors d'une séance de saut à la corde, agilité et rapidité pour le parcours d'Astro-course, coordination et développement de sa musculature pour la marche à quatre pattes de l'ours et la marche en crabe. Après tous ces efforts, 2 semaines de vacances ne seront pas de trop pour récupérer ...!
