Quinn leaves the planet

Last week Quinn and his classmates went to Planet X to collect specimens to bring back to Earth for scientists to study. In preparation for the journey, each student worked with his or her parents to put together a tool box for specimen collection. Quinn's box contained a specimen container, some bags, a notepad and pen, a small shovel, a foreceps, and a snack. We also made air tanks for Quinn to wear so that he could breathe on the surface of Planet X.













The mission was a success and all of the students returned to Planet Earth safely. I had hoped the mission might last just a little longer.
