Transmission from Earth incoming.

CALE: If you're watching this then the Earth is no more...

CALE: No more than a speck in the rear-view mirror. Now you 1, 2, all of you lucky

souls have been chosen as the first humans to colonise Mars. Well done. But let me be

the first to tell you that it won't be easy. Mars is a cold, desolate, radioactive wasteland,

with barely any liquid water.

CALE: No, you at the back, don't push the eject button. I don't recommend it. We have

put together for you a 'Guide to Surviving Life on Mars'.

1. The Journey.

CALE: Now I really hope you're all friends because it's going to be a long journey. 54.6

million kilometres long to be precise and travelling at about 77,000 kilometres an hour,

it's gonna take us 7 months to arrive. I hope you brought some music.

BLAKE: Is there life on maaa...ooh sorry.

CALE: For those with a window seat, you'll start see your new home about 2 million

kilometres from touchdown. It's here you'll see the red soil coloured by iron oxide, big

volcanoes higher than Mt Everest, and colossal canyons that make Arizona look like a

skatepark.

2. Arrival.

CALE: When we land, we kind of know what to expect. It'll look a little something like

this. These pictures were captured by NASA's Perseverance rover in February 2021.

NASA MISSION CONTROL: Tango Delta. Touchdown confirmed. Perseverance safely

on the surface of Mars.

CALE: This 1-ton rover sent us high-definition sights and even sounds of Mars. But

don't all rush to the door. Average temperatures are minus 63, and there's not much

atmosphere which means you can't breathe and all the water in your body will

Page 10: ome - holsworthy-p.schools.nsw.gov.au

evaporate when you step foot on the surface making your blood literally boil. Also, Mars

doesn't have a magnetic field to keep away radiation from the Sun so you could be

exposed to lethal solar flares. So, that's fun.

3. Daily Life.

Luckily for you guys we have been practicing for this for a long time, watch your step.

And figuring out the best ways to keep you guys alive. If you do want to go outside,

you'll have to wear specially designed space suits. Our little friend Perseverance helped

to test them out too to see which material worked the best.

4. Food.

While we have brought a small supply of vacuum-packed food with us you guys will

eventually have to grow your own. Unfortunately, Martian soil is full of toxic chemicals

and heavy metals. Our best bet is a mix of greenhouses, lab grown meat and even

farming insects. Is anyone scared of spiders?

Anyway thanks for being our human guinea pigs and remember, keep your arms and

legs inside the vehicle at all times. Bon voyage.

Alright everyone, bit of hush, bit of hush. Now we're here today to celebrate a very

special birthday, someone who brought us pictures like this, and this, and even this.

Oooh, sorry everyone. That's better. So, without further ado, ladies and lenses, let's say

an intergalactic happy birthday to the Hubble Space Telescope. Oh, it's in space isn't it?

Yep, zooming around the earth at about 30,000 kays an hour, the Hubble Space

Telescope is literally out of this world, and that's kinda what makes it special. You see,

down here on Earth, our view of the stars and planets is kind of blurry, because of the

way light bends and shifts as it passes through our atmosphere. This is why stars

appear to twinkle, and why a lot of super big telescopes are built on mountains, where

the atmosphere is a lot, lot thinner.

Back in 1946, a guy named Lyman Spitzer thought we could do better than mountains.

He wanted to go above the atmosphere.

Of course, that wasn't a simple task, and it took decades of research and trials, and

space triumphs, and space disasters, before finally, on April 24th, 1990, the Hubble

Telescope was sent into space. But when the first pictures came back, things weren't

quite right.

The mirror which reflected all the light into the telescope was ever so slightly off, I'm

talking 1/50th of a human hair off, but this meant all of the images were blurry. After a

few years of serious calculations, astronauts were sent into space to give Hubble some

glasses, and all of a sudden, our universe snapped into focus

Since the fix, there have been some astounding, and simply mind-boggling pictures

come from Hubble. From the birth of new stars, to the death of old ones, but no picture

was more astounding than this. This is the Hubble Deep Field, and it's a series of

images taken in 1995. Scientists pointed Hubble at a tiny speck of sky, that looked

empty. But after 10 days the results blew them away. Each little dot in this image is a

galaxy, and not only that, some of them are galaxies more than 12 billion light years

away.

Page 15: ome - holsworthy-p.schools.nsw.gov.au

But Hubble was never designed to last forever. Back in 2009 NASA launched one last

mission to upgrade and repair it. Meanwhile, it's been working on a replacement. The

James Webb Telescope which will hopefully launch next year. But, for the moment at

least, the Hubble is still up there, showing us our universe, and reminding us just how

small we really are. And thus, the cosmic ballet goes on. Anyway, who brought cake?

Week 5 Wednesday Mathematics: Volume and Capacity LI: We are learning to choose appropriate units of measurement for volume and capacity Volume measures the amount of space an object takes up. Capacity is how much a container can hold.

1. Record as many units of measurement for both volume and capacity that you can think of.

Volume measures the amount of space an object takes up. Objects are three-dimensional. We use the three dimensions to calculate volume. Volume can be measured in: cubic millimetres mm³ cubic centimetres cm³ cubic metres m³ cubic kilometres km³ The little ‘3’ refers to the three dimensions of the object we use to calculate the volume.

2. Record the unit of volume you would use for each of the objects below.

a. Shoe box _______________

b. Skip bin _______________

c. Pluto _______________

d. Tin of paint _______________

e. Garden shed _______________

Page 31: ome - holsworthy-p.schools.nsw.gov.au

Capacity is how much a container can hold. Capacity is closely related to volume. Once we can calculate the volume of 3D objects, we can also calculate the capacity, by converting the cubic units to capacity units. Capacity can be measured in: millilitres mL litres L kilolitres kL megalitres ML Some examples of these units of capacity can be seen below.

3. Using those images as a guide, can you locate 10 items around your house and state which unit of capacity you would use for measuring. Try to identify a variety of items that would fit at least 3 of the different units. You can record these below.

Page 32: ome - holsworthy-p.schools.nsw.gov.au

Week 5 Thursday Mathematics: Volume and CapacityLI: We are learning to measure the volumes of rectangular containers

The volume of a rectangular prism is equal to the number of unit cubes that make up the prism. Each unitcube has a volume of 1 cubic unit.Find the volume of the prism. 1 unit cube = 1 cubic centimetre

Step 1 Count the number of unit cubes in the bottom layer of the prism.There are 4 unit cubes that make up the length of the first layer.There are 2 unit cubes that make up the width of the first layer.There is 1 unit cube that makes up the height of the first layer.So there are 8 unit cubes that make up the bottom layer of the prism.

Step 2 Count the number of layers of cubes that make up the prism.The prism is made up of 3 layers of unit cubes.

Step 3 Find the total number of cubes that fill the prism.Multiply the number of layers by the number of cubes in each layer.

3 x 8 unit cubesEach unit cube has a volume of 1 cubic centimetre. So, the volume of the prism is 24 cubic centimetres.

1. For each of the prisms below, record how many centicubes are in one layer and how many layersthere are of cubes. Then record the volume of that prism.

2. Using the formula l × w × h = v, calculate the volume of these boxes and record the dimensions.

Page 33: ome - holsworthy-p.schools.nsw.gov.au

3. Open-ended problem: How many different sized rectangular prisms could you make that have avolume of 48 cm³? What are their dimensions?If you have blocks or lego at home, you could try modelling this.

OPTIONAL NRICH Challenge problem: This cube is made up from 3×3×3 little cubes whose faces areeither all red or all yellow.The views from all sides of the cube look like this and the little cube in the centre is red.How many little red cubes are used in total? How many little yellow cubes are used?
