Discovery Space Center at American Heritage School Launches a New Mission "Dual Edge". Mad Dog Spotted Near Lone Peak High School. A Missing Young Astronaut Squadron - the Search Continues. Imaginarim Theater

I got a short text from Alex DeBirk last week telling me of the launch of his new mission "Dual Edge" for his school's simulator Discovery.  With the paragraph came the photo below.


Alex's message read:

     These costumes go with the Martian bridge set. We told our new story Dual Edge today. This mission teaches about Native American wars of the 1800s. Here are two of the mysterious Gaians, dressed in special environment suits so they can survive in Discovery's atmosphere. The Gaians are our analogue of Native Americans, people who are forced to leave their land because of pressures outside of their control.



Alex DeBirk's classroom at American Heritage converted to a Mars Base for their new mission Dual Edge. The desks you see are from the old Starship Voyager's bridge at Central School 

 

Utah Valley's Space EdVenture Centers are gearing up for the summer space camp season.  The Christa McAuliffe Space Center has several new missions in the final stages of development with two test flight coming this week - one for the Odyssey's new mission and one for the Galileo.  The Space Place at Renaissance Academy is nearly ready with its new 5 hour mission as well.  Camp registrations are well under way. It should be a fun, busy summer.

Mad Dog Spotted by Mr. Williamson Near Lone Peak High School


I spotted Mad Dog's Minivan near Lone Peak High School two 
weeks ago and took a picture at the traffic light

Reports have emerged that the infamous leader of the Orion Space Pirates, Mad Dog, was recently spotted near Lone Peak High School in Utah. Mad Dog, a notorious wanted fugitive across the galaxy, has been on the run for years, evading the Federation security services at every turn.

It seems that Mad Dog had retired from a life of crime and settled on Earth in hopes of avoiding detection. However, his ego may have gotten the best of him, as he was spotted driving a mini van with license plates that gave him away.

It's not often that a notorious space pirate chooses to settle on Earth, let alone in Utah, but it seems that Mad Dog was hoping to fly under the radar and start a new life. However, his past caught up with him, and his presence in the area has caused quite a stir.

Local authorities are reportedly working with the Federation security services to apprehend Mad Dog and bring him to justice. It's unclear what his plans were for the future or how long he had been in Utah before being spotted, but one thing is for certain – his days of anonymity are over.

The sighting of Mad Dog near Lone Peak High School has left many residents of the area feeling uneasy, especially given his violent past. However, it is reassuring to know that the authorities are on the case and working to ensure the safety of the community.

It remains to be seen what will become of Mad Dog, but for now, residents of the area are advised to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities. The hunt for this notorious space pirate is far from over, and it's likely that we'll be hearing more about him in the days and weeks to come.

Renaissance Academy Young Astronauts Missing in Nebula Hundreds of Light Years Away


One of the few pictures received from Command

The space community is holding its breath as news emerges of a missing 5th Grade Young Astronaut squadron from Renaissance Space Academy. The squadron has been missing for the last few months, several hundred light years from Earth, and the search for them is ongoing.

The only clue we have to their whereabouts are a few pictures transmitted by the ship's computer to Terran Space Command before their starship Voyager went dark. The images show the crew at work on the ship's bridge apparently working a plan to place the ship into the nebula - the reason is unknown.


                                  The photos show the ship at Red Alert

Adding to the mystery, the Starship Montgomery, which was in the region charting new star formation, has also gone missing. This has left the space community reeling and searching for answers.

Experts are working tirelessly to decipher the few images sent from Voyager's computer in the hopes of finding any clues that could lead to the discovery of the missing squadron. The search for the squadron has become a top priority for Terran Space Command, and resources have been mobilized from across the galaxy to aid in the search and rescue efforts.


                         The Voyager's Captain saw something in the cloud

The Renaissance Academy community is understandably concerned for the well-being of their young astronauts, and the missing squadron has left a void in the hearts of many. The school's 200 other Young Astronauts and Voyagers are rallying around the families and friends of the missing cadets, offering support and assistance in any way they can.

We think this is a photo of the communication's officer trying to call for assistance

As the search for the missing squadron continues, the space community is reminded of the inherent dangers of space travel and the importance of safety protocols and procedures. The situation is a sobering reminder that space travel, while exciting and full of possibilities, can also be dangerous and unpredictable.


The last photo. Why was this operation's officer hiding as he decoding a message. What danger was the ship in?

The search for the missing 5th Grade Young Astronaut squadron from Renaissance Academy and the Starship Montgomery is ongoing, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available. The thoughts and prayers of the space community are with the missing astronauts and their families during this difficult time.
