  1. Warm Up October 3 2012 Hydrology is the study of water. What can you infer that hydro- means, what does -ology mean? Why is such a big deal made about humans needing water when it covers 71% of the Earth? (20 words min)

  2. The Water Cycle

  3. We learned earlier this week that meteor/asteroid bombardment helped create our rocky planets closest to the sun.

  4. The movie we saw earlier this week showed how these space rocks contain ingredients necessary for life.

  5. The movie we saw earlier this week showed how these space rocks contain ingredients necessary for life. WATER!

  6. The movie we saw earlier this week showed how these space rocks contain ingredients necessary for life. 2. What’s the molecular formula for water?

  7. NASA scientists have been able to visit our rocky neighbor Mars. Remember how we said these roving robots will land on Mars? This is how the first couple of rovers landed on the red rocky planet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyktvC7w7Js

  8. NASA scientists have been able to visit our rocky neighbor Mars. Remember how we said these roving robots will land on Mars? This is how the newest rover “Curiosity” was supposed to land on Mars: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwinFP8_qIM&feature=related

  9. NASA scientists have been able to visit our rocky neighbor Mars. Here’s a recent shot taken by a satellite orbiting Mars.

  10. NASA scientists have been able to visit our rocky neighbor Mars. Here’s a recent shot taken by a satellite orbiting Mars. You can see the Curiosity rover landing on the planet!

  12. Anyways, these rovers have taken all sorts of photos on Mars.

  13. Anyways, these rovers have taken all sorts of photos on Mars.

  14. Anyways, these rovers have taken all sorts of photos on Mars.

  15. Anyways, these rovers have taken all sorts of photos on Mars. We thought we saw water on Mars here, but these are just some bluish rocks.

  16. Water stays on Earth because we pretty much have a “closed” system here. Earth: “closed” system Mars: “open” system

  17. Water stays on Earth because we pretty much have a “closed” system here. Earth: “closed” system Mars: “open” system • Earth’s thin, layered atmosphere traps most matter here...including H2O.

  18. Water stays on Earth because we pretty much have a “closed” system here. Earth: “closed” system Mars: “open” system • Earth’s thin, layered atmosphere traps most matter here...including H2O. • Mars’ atmosphere is skimpy and can’t hold water there.

  19. Tiered lessons… http://news.discovery.com/space/this-moon-was-made-for-mining-helium-3.html

  20. Also show DiscoveryEd video on water cycle and run-off. Video notes
