HAMS Students (and families):
We have some really awesome opportunities this weekend to see some science in action! It looks like we may have another chance tonight to see the Northern Lights. HAMS science teachers are offering extra credit to any students who take pictures of the Northern Lights this weekend and show them to us on Monday. You don't necessarily need any special equipment- you can use your phone to take these pictures (just change the exposure time to longer). We look forward to seeing your amazing pictures!
Happy science-ing!
