A Little Insight Of My Past Dream

Before actually thinking about becoming an astronaut, I used to have this dream of becoming a famous musician (pianist, to be more specific). That was when the realisation came that Music was just not my cup of tea. Somehow, I needed more. I wanted to be more adventurous. Finally, I came to the conclusion that I wanted to become an astronaut. It was quite a challenging task, as I got the inspiration by none other than Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor. Yes, playing the piano makes it a lot harder to divide time (for an 11 year old) because I've SATS in 2 weeks.

Gotta go study for SATS now!



Till next time,

How Do Spacesuits Work?

Earlier today, I was lying down on my bed trying to make a list in my head of topics I have not yet covered about Earth and Space. Thinking about space, I was asking myself "How do spacesuits work?". That question kept ringing in my mind fo about a minute, before I fell asleep. Now that I'm wide awake (hopefully, completely), I decided that I wanted to find the answer to that very question. It wasn't a very easy task. It took me about half an hour to find the answer.

Spacesuits are designed to:

• Have a pressurized atmosphere
• Give you oxygen
• Remove Carbon Dioxide
• Allow you to communicate with other people (including people on Earth/astronauts)
• Allows flexible body movement
• Allows clear vision of what's going on.

My next research: How Do Astronauts Eat In Space?

Fantastic Friday!

Hey everyone,

I'm back again. Just going to do a small write up on my usual study about space. As you know, my main focuses are on the International Space Station and the planets. There's much more to space than that, believe it or not! I am aiming to complete the rest of my studies about space soon. Thanks to Dr Sheikh and all the astronauts around the world.

See you!
