This is very exciting Primary 3!
You may or may not be aware that NASA and Space X is launching a rocket at around 9.30pm tomorrow night (Wednesday 27/5/20) from Kennedy Space Centre in Florida, America. The Space X rocket will travel 22 times the speed of sound at 17,000 mph!!!! (A car driving fast on a motorway travels at 70mph!) to reach the International Space Station which orbits the Earth.
The estimated time of launch is 9:33pm our time tomorrow, I am aware that may well be past your bed times! If you are planning on watching the launch, it can be watched on NASA’s website live:
If not, try to watch footage of the launch on Thursday at some point.
This does not happen very often.
Enjoy!
