Space Center field trip

Hey everyone. Today I went to the space center for a school field trip. Those of you that have been there know what I am talking about. If you have not been there here is what it is...
Ok, the space center is a learning center for grade school aged kids to learn about space. In it it has several simulater space ships, that make it all seam really real. They give each kid a job before they get there, and each kid gets to learn how to do their job by listening to a little head-set. The tape recorder(head set) teaches you all of the stuff you need to know to be able to do your job. The ships our class were using were called oddysey(the ship i was on, and the medium ship), Phoenix(the smallest ship), and another ship(the biggest, and the one i can't remember the name too:). I was on the medium ship. We did not get attacked by any Aliens, but the biggest ship had( i think ) about two or three of them come on board. My job was the engenire(miss fix-it) If Anything brakes while we are on the ship, it is my job to fix it. It was cool, exept for all of the loud yelling,:) and the red lights when we did something wrong. After we got off the ships, we headed to the lunch-room, and had lunch. Then we went to one of the class-rooms( the space center is built into a school) to learn about some important people in the history of spacey stuff. That was pretty cool. The last thing we did before we boarded the school-buses again was go into a little blow-up tent. When we were all squished up in there, the space/science teacher turned on a projector. She showed us tons of different constilations, and told us about them. The space center also has summer camps. They are kinda expensive, but really cool camps.
