NEEMO 19

We have been following Canadian astronaut, Jeremy Hansen, during his astronaut training.  His latest adventure is with NEEMO 19 aboard the under-water capsule, Aquarius.  Read more about it here.

You can view live action webcams both inside and outside of Aquarius here.

Today there was a Google+ hangout where they answered questions, a few of mine included.  I am Alberta Sci Teacher on Twitter and one of my questions is answered around 6min 30sec.  

See more details here.

Very cool week!

@Astro_Jeremy wr were wondering how you get in and out. Cool

@Astro_Jeremy @Astro_Andreas - The perfect way to explain it. Every kid in my class asked "Why doesn't it fill up with water?". Merci!
