Today I fed the worms 0.68 g of rotten seedless Sam's club cucumbers. I am curious how long it takes them to eat it. Their are about 2 lbs of worms so they should be able to eat 1 lb. of food, which is about 463 grams. I have yet to feed them this as its a new bin. When they finish what they have, I will feed them more.

Megan and I went to the Johnson Space Center on Nasa Road today. I wasn't going to go as it didn't pique my interest enough. Well it did, but these days, I have to pick and choose activities more wisely. But, a few people commented this was great and it was. Megan learned about Centrifugal force, gravity, momentum (angular) , friction, gyroscopic stability, inertia, to name a few. Some of this was while watching a Science Circus.
She was also introduced to Albert Einstein and his theory of Relativity in laymen's terms (kid-friendly introduction). She was also introduced to other scientists before Einstein, like Galileo, Isaac Newton (which she was familiar with) and James Maxwell, to name a few. She learned why Einstein was so famous.
To end it , we saw a science comedian. He was really funny. In this, Megan asked him if the world today contained more oxygen like it did in the Prehistoric past, would the world be more explosive. He said she was half right, so she gets partial credit. But, he said, you are small, so partial credit is all you need!!
After this, we went on a walk and I told Megan more about Albert Einstein. I am going to get some kids book on him as he has always been a person of interest to me.
