Modeling the Universe

Our TCMS lab is back open for visits! Sixth-grade Victor Co. students in Mrs. Sturrup's class enjoyed this opportunity by creating balloon models of our expanding universe. Students discovered as the universe stretches, so do galaxies held within. They tracked and measured the distances between galaxies as balloon models expanded!

Pictured below students are measuring galaxy points on balloons.
