Almost Presentation!

Ok, so today I touched up my poster and worked a bit on my reflection paper that is due soon. Not much left at this point. Just have to wait until thursday and then, PRESENTATION TIME!! (is upon us).

I learned a whole lot on this subject, but I still need to become a little more fluently knowledgeable about the classification system, founded by Annie Jump Cannon. It classifies based on star temperature, using the letters OBAFGK and M, O being the hottest, M the coolest.

It's Finished!

Huzzah! My poster is done!! That took a while. I can't believe it's almost time to be done and present. It seems like yesterday I was just starting! Oh, well. And now the year is ending as well and sooo many new projects are popping up. Thank goodness for the three day weekend.
And Happy Memorial Day!!

Also, thanks to the sun for finally coming out and shining on me and my project and stained glass. Also, thanks to all the sites that helped me understand this and the people who helped me a bit. (It's 99% done by me!)

Alas, presentation day is yet to come. Hope I'm prepared!

P.S. Thanks to everyone who actually looked at my blog. It's been fun and I learned a lot!

Last In-Class Work Day

Though most likely not my last post. Now I'm just working on the layout and construction of my poster board and it's rather astounding how much space there is to fill. I'll manage, though. As soon as I get the chance, I will try to post some picture of my work in progress. It's not very pretty right now, but hopefully that will change. I have a good, clear picture of what I want my poster, at least, to look like now and most of the things I will be putting on it. Since my project works with things in space and non-tangible concepts, it's hard to get a lot of visuals or models, but there are enough things to make a good presentation.

I think there might also be a bit of fun with my nod to the Portal games, since, after all, Aperture Laboratories is funding this research. \( 'O' )/
