Stellarium: 02/23/2021

 This week my classmates and I used the program Stellarium to observe planets and their movements over a period of time. During this activity we were able to enter our birthday and observe the consolation of the stars, and determine our astrological sign. I enjoyed this activity because it allowed me to better understand the Stellarium software. I also enjoyed observing the location of planets and stars.  Below are some pictures from the activity.

I sure didn't want to take my time freezing my edges off like the other intrusive rocks; so I decided to go the extrusive route and cool faster. Then I began the solidification process. I couldn't believe my eyes, I was full of holes and formed into igneous rock.

We were flat and just a tad bit shiny, you can thank my crys...
