Trip to SSC

Welcome to Channel News Zaisia.

Moving on, in today featured news...

Met up with Ivan and we left for the Singapore Science Centre. Long time never go there liao. But I still can remember the main structures and shapes of the buildings. There was this water play park and it looked like fun. Ivan had some Omnitheatre vouchers so we exchanged them for tickets. After catching lunch at McDonalds (which was un-crowded wad) and drumming around, we went in the theatre for the show. It hadnt changed =.= still 5 stories tall, which made me feel that I was about to fall everytime i look down. There were 2 movies showing --- one abt the deep sea creatures and the other about Mars. It was titled Roving Mars actually. So we chose that one. It looked more interesting anyway. There wasnt much people, and the show tooked about 40 minutes. Roving Mars was cool, featuring how the NASA scientists managed to get a rover vehicle on Mars. It was mentioned that the process took 7 months. They overcame the various difficulties, and eventually managed to send 2 rovers on Mars, named Spirit and Opportunity. These vehicles did their job well and discovered that there was water on Mars billions of years ago, a sign that lifeform could exist.

After the show, we strolled around and then Ivan's dad came to pick us up. I caught a lift XD.

Well, for more information, there's this webby, presented by Walt Disney Pictures.
