The full story here is so cool:

▸ one of the satellite's onboard engines failed

▸ so the Space Shuttle went up, found it, physically grabbed it, and BROUGHT IT BACK TO EARTH

▸ after some repairs, the company launched it *again*, and it worked

To the outside observer, STEM learning often looks messy and chaotic… but that’s because it usually is.
As teachers we have to focus & guide that messy & chaotic process to help kids learn valuable skills.

Atlases continuing to stack up like cordwood at the Cape. I don’t think I’ll get a chance to surpass my predecessor, Karl Bossart, but we are giving it our best effort… ;)

📣 Teachers!
We've published a new Make it: code it project: 'Distance calculator'
📏 It lets you measure distances by pacing out distances & clicking the micro:bit
📏The micro:bit calculates the distance by multiplying your step length by how many steps you take.
