August 2, 2010 - 3:34pm -- thinksmart

   To start off, on thursday 29th 2010  we went to the STEM lab to design and build CEV's. CEV's are Crew Exploration Vehicle's, relating to the Space topic and Leonardo topic, it was a great mixture of works. I personally thought this particular activty was truly interesting.My group and I came up with a sphere-like shaped rocket that gave viewers eyes a twic, as in it was unique from others.But what REALLY gave it a shiny effect was the tin-foil covering the outside of the CEV. Also not only that our CEV had a tin-foil layer but we even added a heat isolation layer to keep the  heat in for the astronaunts who would live in it. In my point of view I really wanted to make the CEV in detailed model, because I wanted it to have a realistic feature. Now , I wouldnt be able to create such a model in my own. I had a really fun and loving crew with me. Thoung had made the chairs , kitchen, and the first floor of the spacecraft model. While on the other hand I had my buddy Veronica build the comfy beds and second floor of the CEV. In conclusion, I had a great time working with the diva's and also building and getting to know them.
