@mrsalvord It’s an inertia demo. Put an index or playing card under the ball on the pedestal, then bend the arm back and knock the card out!

Gators win and advance to title game!!!

[CLS Boys Soccer @CLS_BSoccer]

Gators find the needed growth, never giving up & believing in each other in a truly united performance, defeating Waterloo Gibault 2-1 (5-4 in 6 rounds of PKs) and advancing to the STATE CHAMPIONSHIP tomorrow at 1PM at Hoffman Estates!

Another example of how Science is a process and how we learn from every success and every miss. Keep it up @SpaceX ! https://t.co/3yYaMwIPAi

Third burn successful. Exceeded Mars orbit and kept going to the Asteroid Belt.

[Mr Connell @CLS_AP_Physics]

In case you haven't heard, @SpaceX has successfully tested the largest rocket currently on Earth (Falcon Heavy) and is in the process of perfecting the autonomous return of the rockets!

@elonmusk @SpaceX Congratulations on your recent success! Amazing feat of ingenuity, engineering and vision. Thank you for helping to inspire a generation to pursue STEM and not accept the current limits of our understanding!

[Mr Connell @CLS_AP_Physics]

This is cure and adorable in a lot of ways!
