Rebekah's Lances Lab Report

Pop star Lance Bass has moved into space and is living on the international space station. His module is his new home, so it has to have everything he needs to live, record music, do science experiments, have fun and relax.

 Recording Music

His music area has specialised equipment such as a Skype TV to talk with and play to his producers, and a 2011 model laptop with an exceptional voice recorder to record his music. He also has a guitar to try out and play new songs. On his laptop he can send his recorded music to earth through a satellite internet connection.

Science Experiments

Lance has a new science lab to carry out educated experiments. His science table is firmly bolted to the ground with bottles attached to the surface of the table. On his wall behind his experimental table are pieces of metal that can clutch bottles so they don’t float away. One of his experiments is to make a formula that can keep him from becoming ill in space. He also experiments on ball point pens. Lance is attempting to find out why they do not work in space. There is no gravity in space so the ink can’t run to the tip of the pen. He has a TV to communicate to children on earth and educate them on his experiments.

Daily life.

Mr Bass has all the things he needs to live. At the end of his module is a toilet which he can use in space. His toilet uses a suction pump and his human waste is put into a large sewer at the end of the space station. The suction pump is crucial in space because there is no gravity. He also has a washing machine that uses very little water and because there is no gravity in space the clothes tumble around by themselves. His dryer is almost the same, but instead of uses water it shoots out hot air to dry the clothing. He has three beds with straps to hold him down so he can sleep without hitting his head or body on surrounding objects such as the roof or the bottom of the next bed above him. He has cupboards that are attached to the wall, that contain prepared and cooked meals and snacks. His cooked and prepared meals and snacks to eat in space are different and because there is no gravity in space water or any fluids form bubbles. In space lance must be careful with water because there is a lot of electronic devices in his module.

Fun and relaxation.

Lance Bass has a giant flat screen TV that is connected with the satellite dishes. He has a game arcade with 40 loaded games that he can play when he needs to relax and have fun. He has a comfortable bean bag with straps to hold him down. The bean bag is bolted to the ground so it can’t float. This is a place where he can have fun and rest.

Pop star Lance Bass has everything he needs in space to live a daily life, record music, do educated experiments and communicate back to his friends and family on earth. There are many challenges while living in space such as water mixing with electronic devices, communication back to friends on earth, and living without gravity.
