What type of 3D printers are there (6)?
·       Stereolithography (SLA)
·       Digital Light Processing (DLP)
·       Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)
·       Selective Laser Melting (EBM)
·       Selective Beam Melting (EBM)
·       Laminated Object manufacturing (LOM)
If the school has a Maker Bot 3D printer what type is it? Explain how it works

With the maker bot you can create and customize objects and print objects off of sketch up or other maker Applications.






What type of material does it use?
Filament

What is the average time for a desktop 3D printer?
It takes about 12 hours to print  (I think)
What can a 3D printer be used for? (List 5)
1.    rapid manufacturing
2. Organs    
3.  general motors
4.    A Gun (working)
5.    And a flute


What have 3D printers been used for in the science community? Why is this important? Who does it benefit?
3d printers can be used in science by making organs for people that need them and it benefits people that have been in car crashes etc.           











Check with Mr. Sheppard which ones would work. You will have to find a vector or line drawing of the symbol that you would want. After confirming find the symbol.


My House in Sketch Up + Pool

Im not very good in sketch up but i kinda tried.

 My houses roof was way to hard to make so i just left it flat.

Sketch up: My room

In sketch up we have to make a room in our house. I chose to do my room because it's the easiest to do, because i'm in that room every day. I tried to recreate it best i could and it looks pretty much the same except my floor is carpet but i made it hardwood with the rug.

Instead of paintings i did two posters which i actually have, except i have a snake eyes poster and a eminem poster. They wouldn't connect to my wall so they are just floating but they look like they are on my wall. 
The couch i have in my room is a little bit bigger but its leather and has the coffee table at the foot, i added that rug because it looks cool.


My stand for my tv looks a little bit different but the ps4 i have and tv, and no i don't watch a bugatti on tv all day. 

My dresser and lamp with a book. and my window, with a white trim on it.



My bed looks kinda like that, just it doesn't look rectangular like that.. it has more shape to it. 


My room overall looks the same like i said aside from the hardwood floor, i wish my room was hardwood because i hate having to vacuum it every 3 days because someone tracks dirt in it like every other day.

Planet base Last Day

Alright so let me start by saying, this time went a lot better than my last years PlanetBase Project. I had a very easy base to run, nobody died on the first two days. Then Yesterday rolled around and everyone just died. I don't know why. Maybe they decided to just stop trying at life and just killed themselves. If they did, screw them because i wanted to still run that base. I kind of cheated in a way though. Because after everyone died i just reloaded my save to see if I could turn that problem around but as u can see..........

Im at two damn colonists. They just up and died, AGAIN. I really don't think you can beat this game. THERE'S NO END TO THIS GAME!!!!! Don't get me wrong I did kind of enjoy playing it this run through. The only bad thing that necessarily happened was my colonist died of like no oxygen, i was making food  no problem but then things turned around and were not in my favour anymore. 

This time i decided to go with two mines.

That went really well because your getting two times the resources and if you but the driller bot from the trading ships its really really good, you will get 2-4 minerals a minute. Now I only had one driller bot, so just imagine that. Two bots and one in each mine, that's money right there.


But when you get more than one mine you are gonna need more workers and more metal processors. I only had one so i wasn't making that much metal, i should have been tho so i could build more.


Had to get that sick angle, the bio dome is pretty key because that's were you grow all your food/medical plants. If i had to rate this game on a scale of 1-10 i would give it a 7. It really gets the blood boiling sometimes because of the stupid colonists, They will just leave there work when its almost done and it just makes me so mad sometimes.

Planet Base Day 4

Today My plan is to start making more rooms that I already have because colonist just keep rolling in and taking everything. I also figured out how the food was made, when you place down the food vending machines colonists will take the vegetables and meat to it and it makes the meals. I thought u had to make the table in the lab and they would make the meals. I also found a post on steam of someone with a list of all the meal recipes.

There's the link if you want to check it out he also has a bunch more posts about planetbase to help you out.


My base is starting to grow again considering i had to start almost at the beginning again. I didn't have much time to take a screenshot but as you can see i am still doing pretty good.

Planet base Day 3

Today my goal was to get the telescope and Laser gun. I did it. I also have a very successful base i build a butload of buildings today.

PlanetBase Day 1

Today i played the tutorial and it went very well. I played the real stuff and everyone died. I played again and so far i am doing really good, better than last year.
The game plays very well, the only thing I would change would be the rotating of the camera. The graphics are very good as well.

PlanetBase Game Review

Planet Base
Planet Base is a strategy game were you are on mars and you try to start a successful life on mars or the planet you’re on. If you don’t play it right all your people will just die. And if you last long enough you will end up getting a ship pad and a ship will come occasionally. With that ship you can trade goods and get better robots and people. You can build many different types of buildings such as: a cafeteria, bunk (sleeping area), mine, and solar panels, wind turbines, med bays, and power storages. It relates to the mars project how there is no returning, the game is just endless. The game looks like it could be a really fun game but it would get really annoying if your people all just died and you had to restart. I believe the game has some potential and could be a game I would play on my own time if I was bored.


P.S: Why u do dis, why do I have to go through this hell again. 

The Martian Movie Review



The Martian is a movie about an astronaut, Mark Watney (Matt Daemon, also stars in Elysium). He is sent out to mars to see if it is possible to live on mars. When one night a sandstorm (very unlikely because mars has no atmosphere) comes up and they all are evacuating mars but while in the struggle Mark gets hit will a piece of debris and the team loses connection to his radio. He then has to survive on the planet and has to ration his food to last I think it was about 100 days. He then decides that won't work so he starts to grow his own potatoes. Then the potatoes grow and he can eat them and regrow. He says "They say once you grow crops somewhere, you have officially colonized it, so technically, I colonized mars. In your face Neil Armstrong!" And if you don’t know who Neil Armstrong is, you’re pretty dumb. He was the first man on the moon. He also has a quote. "One small step for man, one giant step for mankind." Which is a stupid quote I find, but I shouldn't say that to anyone. If I was on mars by myself I would go crazy because I couldn’t talk to someone or hear someone else’s voice. I couldn’t live with myself, but Matt Daemon the trooper and stud that he is somehow pulled through. Mark Whatney finds a way to communicate with NASA and leaves a message for the rover that he dug up. Now I have seen this movie in the past but its such a good movie I could watch it multiple times and not get bored. The movie first caught my attention when it was first released because its about a guy going to mars, and I don’t mean to make this sound cheesy but every kid has that urge to want to walk on a different planet. I know if I was given the chance to go to space I would but only if I could come back and be with my family again. And if I wasn’t by myself the whole time. I think it would also be really boring but I’m sure they would have you working all the time doing work like finding a way to live on that planet that would be really cool if you could live on a different planet such as mars or the moon. It would also be really cool to be the guy that survived on mars, if I had that name I would cherish it and if I see a random person in public be like hey I was on mars, just kidding. That would probably be the biggest jerk move. From watching The Martian again I would give it a 9/10

Astronaut Requirements

Resiliency:

I have really good resiliency because I can remain productive, most of the time. I am also my best or try to when I’m at my worst. I also trust relatively everyone until they do something to me to make me not trust them. And I always have a can do attitude.

Adaptability:

I can adapt to most situations when I don’t really understand the situation. I also know my boundaries and when to extend them.  I am always open to new ideas and different perspectives. I don’t understand some different cultures but I’m sure that I can adapt to some new cultures.

Curiosity:

My curiosity is through the roof especially when I’m learning about new stuff and stuff like space because I find that stuff so interesting. I also love learning about new stuff to do with space. I ask questions when not clear and if I don’t understand. If I know something someone else doesn’t I will clarify what they want to know not to brag about what I know and they don’t.

Ability to Trust:

My ability to trust is really good because I can trust pretty much everyone and myself. My trust is mostly in people that I know will do a good job. I also look back on things that give done that are similar and trust that I will do a good job.

Creativity/Resourcefulness:

I will know when a problem will occur and then adapt to that problem and fix it. I can be very humorous but only when necessary, and will use it when needed not when wanted. I also have a good spirit in playfulness because I’m used to it because I have a younger sister and have to entertain her almost all the time. I am also aware of different kind of creativity.

Medical and Physical Requirements:

I am free from drug use or relying on drugs or alcohol. I have normal functioning of all my joints and bones. My eyes are also 20/20 and don’t require glasses or contacts. Im free of psychiatric disorders because im not skitsafrenic  or anything. My blood pressure last time I checked is fine and dosnt exceed 140/90. And the only thing that I don’t succeed is the height expected.

Country of Origin & Language:

Since English is the required language I exceed that but if I had to learn a different language I would not pass but to do the interview you only need a English level of A2 wish is elementary. 

Fitness Testing:

The curl ups I can do 24 of them. Trunk lift? I don’t know what that is but I’m sure I could do it. 18 push ups should be really easy but I would need to work out a little bit before I do this. I can do 12 pull ups no problem. Flexed arm hang for 15 seconds sounds pretty easy but I have never seen this done before. The sit and reach whenever I try that I could never get over like 6 or something like that so I would fail that one. With the running I can run the same as an average person and I’m sure I can reach the expectation.

Dangers:

The dangers of going to space are limitless. I am aware that once you are there, there’s no coming back. There is also the danger of maybe this plan not working but never seeing my family again would be hard but the people that you are going with are your family now.
