Weekend & Space

Answer to the poll question...Earth could fit inside Jupiter 1,320 times!!

Have a great weekend! Look over the lesson 12 spelling review. Since it is a spelling review list I am going to have the test on Wednesday before Thanksgiving break.

The largest object in our solar system was the sun. Comet 17P/Holmes just passed it with its
expanding debris cloud. It's 1.4 million kilometers wide and getting bigger!



Also up this weekend, the Leonid meteor shower is to peak before dawn on Sunday, Nov. 18th. This year looks to be about 12 meteors/hour, which is not as spectacular as the past few years.
