On Thursday, Ms. Robinson's Astronomy class and Mrs. Martin's Environmental Science class went to Colgate University to see a show in the Visualization Lab! Students learned about the upcoming solar eclipse, what stars and planets are currently in the nighttime sky, and how life on Earth is related to the birth of the Solar System. Students also toured both the Geology Museum and the greenhouses at Colgate!
