drones
SRO Scott Gilbertson came to talk with Ms Erickson's Earth & Planetary Science classes today with his police drone.  He's a certified drone pilot and shared the technology and gave a brief demo to the class.  Tomorrow the students that completed their FAA Trust Certifications are leading teams to fly smaller drones with the class.  We are using them to discuss how science is used in fun and important ways.  Soon they will be studying the physic forces of lift, drag, thrust and gravity using drones.  We will also be looking at meteorology, atmospheric layers of the Earth and a few more concepts related to drones and EPS before going into Space studies.
