What a Weekend!

This weekend I met Kamau Hamilton, another Kids’ Science Challenge winner. We went to SETI and learned about where intelligent life might exist on other planets. Kamau and I went into the sound booth and recorded “Weekend Edition” with Mr. Scott Simon from National Public Radio. Then I went to the science faire held at SETI and built a trebuchet (catapult), dissected owl pellets, and built a car. On Sunday we met at my house and went on a special guided tour of the California Academy of Sciences with SETI’s Jill Tarter. The planetarium was awesome, but it made me dizzy. I had to leave early as my soccer team was playing, so we drove an hour north of San Francisco for my games. I was glad that I scored a goal and made a few assists.
