The full story here is so cool:
▸ one of the satellite's onboard engines failed
▸ so the Space Shuttle went up, found it, physically grabbed it, and BROUGHT IT BACK TO EARTH
▸ after some repairs, the company launched it *again*, and it worked

To the outside observer, STEM learning often looks messy and chaotic… but that’s because it usually is.
As teachers we have to focus & guide that messy & chaotic process to help kids learn valuable skills.

Atlases continuing to stack up like cordwood at the Cape. I don’t think I’ll get a chance to surpass my predecessor, Karl Bossart, but we are giving it our best effort… ;)

📣 Teachers!
We've published a new Make it: code it project: 'Distance calculator'
📏 It lets you measure distances by pacing out distances & clicking the micro:bit
📏The micro:bit calculates the distance by multiplying your step length by how many steps you take.

On this day in 1776, the Continental Congress passes a resolution proclaiming the sovereignty of the American colonies in rebellion against Great Britain. Despite being ratified on July 2, this "Declaration of Independence" will not be published for another two days.
