STEMonstrations to Spark Curiosity
Wednesday brings an exciting lineup of STEM education activities designed to ignite curiosity among students. As part of the ongoing efforts to promote science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning, several STEMonstrations are planned for the day.
- 1. Robotics Workshop: Participants will get hands-on experience exploring the principles of robotics and learning to build their own robots. This workshop aims to nurture problem-solving skills and creativity among budding engineers.
- 2. Chemistry Magic Show: Witness mind-boggling chemical reactions and colorful displays as our talented chemists perform their magic. This engaging show promises to captivate the audience while demonstrating the wonders of chemistry.
- 3. Physics Funfair: Join us at the physics funfair, where you will have the opportunity to experiment with various physics phenomena. From constructing simple machines to understanding the laws of motion, this event guarantees a fun and educational experience for all.
Station Upkeep: Ensuring Smooth Operations
Keeping the station well-maintained is crucial to ensure its smooth operation. Wednesday’s agenda includes dedicated time for station upkeep activities, involving both the crew members and maintenance staff.
- 1. Equipment Maintenance: The maintenance team will inspect and service various equipment, such as air filters, electrical systems, and communication devices, to minimize the risk of malfunctions and ensure optimal functionality.
- 2. Cleaning and Sanitization: Crew members will focus on maintaining cleanliness throughout the station, including common areas, laboratories, and personal living quarters. Regular cleaning and sanitization routines help create a healthy and hygienic environment for everyone.
- 3. Supply Inventory: A comprehensive inventory check will be conducted to ensure an adequate stock of essential supplies, ranging from food and water to medical and scientific equipment. This helps prevent any shortages or unexpected issues during the mission.
Hearing Assessments for Crew Well-being
The well-being of the crew members is of utmost importance during prolonged space missions. To ensure their overall health, Wednesday’s schedule includes hearing assessments for each crew member.
Space experts will assess and monitor the crew’s auditory health, identifying any possible hearing issues. By detecting and addressing problems early on, they can provide necessary interventions and prevent long-term complications.
These assessments are part of the ongoing commitment to safeguard the physical and mental well-being of astronauts, promoting a healthy environment for living and working in space.
