WHAT CAN WE LEARN TODAY?
SCIENCE
With science, we learn to ask questions, conduct research, experiment, test hypothesis, and draw conclusions. And we challenge ourselves to become more imaginative and curious everyday.
Mr. Jarrell's high school students constructed DNA models to learn how genetic code is formed and replicated, and how traits are inherited.
What hypothesis will you test today?
ASTRONOMY
Marathon, Texas, enjoys Class 1 Dark Skies - the darkest possible on earth. This allows us to observe the night sky at a level of detail and clarity rarely possible from within a community.
The astro-photography image above was aquired by Frederick Steiling on February 6-11, 2016 at the Marathon Sky Park, and shows M81 and M82 - a pair of galaxies in the constellation Ursa Major.
