FIRST FRC Robotics Kick-Off
Good luck to all the FRC teams as they learn about the new challenge for 2013. I know they will work so hard in the next 2 months to build their robots.

Summer Solstice 2012
I am amazed at how all of the cosmos has lined up to support space camp this summer. I loved the solar and lunar eclipses last month, and then the Venis transit, and now we have the Summer Solstice...the first day of summer and the longest day in the Northern Hemisphere! How cool is that! So tonight at 7:09 PM EDT, the sun will be at the farthest north position of the whole year.
One of the best Science Moms around! Thanks Amber!
Here are a few more things we did today at camp. Thanks to the Declo FRC Robotics Team for coming!
So they loved the robot shooting off the candy!

If the link doesn't work, go to justin.tv, then type in Utah in the search box. The FRC Comp should be first choice. The Declo team is Botwired, but all of these teams are amazing! I will ask my friend to share pix when they get back so you can see their robots.

UPDATED: FRC KickOff! The Game is Rebound Rumble!!
Tomorrow marks the official start of FRC 2012! Teams in Idaho are meeting in Idaho Falls to pick up their kits and learn about the new challenge from FIRST headquarters. I am so excited to follow our Declo FRC Team! This is a huge commitment for the families, and it is a great opportunity for the high school students who have chosen to participate. Have fun tomorrow and keep us posted. The teams have about 2 months to design and build their robots, and the competitions start in March. Good luck in 2012!

Rebound Rumble is played by two competing alliances on a flat, 27 x 54 ft field. Each alliance consists of three robots. They compete to score as many basketballs into their hoops as they can during a 2 minute and 15 second match. The higher the hoop in which the basketball is scored, the more points the alliance receives.
The match begins with a 15-second Hybrid Period in which robots operate independently of driver inputs. During this Hybrid Period, one robot on each alliance may be controlled using a Microsoft Kinect.
How cool is that!!
