Another Great day with the Goddard Girls!

Here you see a picture of a dummy they use in medical school! (:

As you may know the goddard girls have the most fun this summer! You might not think so but to my opinion it is! today was a very great day! so the first thing of our day we went to UMASS medical school, to see most of the things people do there and most of the students do there. pne example would be is that they practice on dummies! it may sound funny but is very intersetin. Like the dummies actually! BREATHE! (: can you believe that like seriously, its really amazing in how it works. For an example, they use these dummies to practice on once again. it really amazing in how they do it...

Simulation Science

Today we had a lot of fun. WE went to UMASS Medical School. That is a place where college graduates learn to be doctor, nurse, surgeons, and musch more. Umass memorial hospital is very big and new. When we got there we were split into groups. One group would discuss when the other wwent on a tour and visa versa. On the tour we went in to an area called the simulation center. There students or new doctors or nurses could preform procedures on dummies so they perfected them befor the preformed them on actual people. There were a lot of different dummies. There was on dummy of a pregnant...

An Awesome day at Goddard Girls!!!

Today we went to umass!! We were learning about how bodies work in some ways but on a manaquin because they say they rather try it on a maniquin then a human cause it might mess up a human body. Also for lunch we had sandwiches. with cookies and soda. the lunch today was kind of good but not better tan we had recently.Also today we are going to the pool to do NASA games i guess.ANd also today we talked to an astronaut it was really cool. Sghe answerd all my questions. My main question was how do astronauts take showert because they dont take showers up there. The answer is that they have a...

UMASS med school

Today, we went to UMASS medical school and did lots of cool stuff! First, we went on a tour of the simulation center. It's basically a bunch of rooms with these lifelike dolls that are used to simulate what it would be like to save a patients life. Rather than giving a real person a heart attack, scientists give a manakin a heart attack and students have to save its life. There was a normal human male manakin, an 8 year old manakin, a pregnant woman and baby manakin, a baby manakin, and a 10 minute old manakin. There's also a manakin that makes the noises of a heart, all sorts of different...

UMass Medical University

During my fourth day at the Goddard Girls Summer Pogram, we went to UMass where I attended Chinese academics. In the morning we saw many mannequins that medical students practiced on before they started to work with real human beings. I learned that they debriefed after a session. The dummies were exactly like real people. They had a pulse, they could breathe and speak to my surprise. After that, we went to interwiew a person that was the manager of the international space station. Her name was Dr.Liz Warren and she knew as much as an astronaut even though she has never gone into space...

How anyone ever gotten very sick in space? 3. How do you shower and keep clean in space? Do you sweet? 4. How do...

Building CEV prototypes at the Stem Lab

On August 4,

Goddard Girls have achieved to make prototypes of their own CEVs (Crew Exploration Vehicles) and presented with confidence. Our prototypes were made out of recyclable materials. Each CEV had fufil the requested nessesities when going to space by making the material represent them. Everyone worked as a team and we pulled it through. The whole day had been planed out and with that being said we spent the whole day there. Can't wait to enjoy the next days here!

Shine like the stars Goddard Girls

Yesterday we mostly stayed at the University of Massetusetts. We first start of doing a project seeing how your leg can change size by 10 minutes. Then we went into the lab and talked about what a CEV really means. NASA obviously use CEV's but the interesting thing is that the sattlites are retiring in two years.So with that subject we are building are "fake" CEV's, but we have to make rough drafts first. Next we ate yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuummmyyyyyyyyyy pizza!After that we built are CEV's and interview are CEV's to everybody.Lastly we took a long walk to the sign of UMass to take a picture...

fun days

Umass Campus!!

August 4, 2010............

Today we went to the Umass campus to create CEV's, which stansds for Crew Exploration Vehicle. We learned that when astronauts first travel into space they feel like they have a cold and the upper part of the face gets puffy. Which causes them a reaction not to feel thirsty because of the fluid shift that increases the blood volume. the food that astronauts carry are dehydrated because theres no water in space. We did a lesson on how to stimulate the fluid shift felt by astronauts upon entering space. Which was really cool cause you could actually feel on...
