Lance's Lab - Matthew

Lance Bass is a rock star.  He is currently living in space on the ISS (International space station). He wants to write a song about space so he has gone to space to get some ideas.  He also went because he wanted to see if it was easy to record music there.  Lance must also communicate back to earth and conduct experiments in his module.

Living

Lance Bass has a comfortable living quarters.  His bed is like a sleeping bag but it is on the wall.  It is on the wall because there is no gravity in space and it saves room. He has Velcro shoes and Velcro carpet so it holds him down.  Lance has a fridge which is bolted to the wall with Velcro strips inside.  Inside the fridge is canned food with Velcro the bottom of them so it sticks to the fridge. To cook his food he uses a microwave with again Velcro.  To eat his food Lance uses a spoon and just spoons it into his mouth.  If some fly’s away he quickly grabs it. Once Lance has gone to the toilet he closes the toilet lid and turns the suction pump on.  The pump sucks up all the human waste and holds it in a holding tank on the wall.  On the other wall is a two metre wide Velcro pad where he stores his water and cloths.  His water is held in sachets with nozzles.  To brush his teeth Lance must use a few drops of water which he has to catch on his tooth brush.  To wash his clothes Lance has a washing machine that uses little water. There is no gravity in space so as a result of that the clothes tumble by themselves.

Exercise

To exercise Lance has a machine that pulls him down while he is doing squats.  His shoes are Velcro to hold him in place.

Music

Lance has a small sound proof room at the front of his module. To record music Lance sings it into a microphone records it, puts it on his laptop and edits it (if he needs to).the he can send it to earth through his high powered satellite.

Communication

To communicate Lance has a high powered satellite.  On the wall is a screen which he can see the person he is talking to.  It is kind of like Skype but a lot more advanced.

Science

Lance has a science shelf on the side  of his module. He is experimenting on how far sound carries in space.

Evan-Lances Lab

Nineteen year-old pop sensation Lance Bass has signed a contract to release an album from the I.S.S (International Space Station). While he is up there, he will conduct an experiment to examine the effects of gravity on regular, and bacteria life. Inside Lance’s pod on the I.S.S, he will need, a recording studio, a place to work on his project, a place to exercise, a way to communicate with earth, and of course, a place to relax and have fun.

                                                                                       Communication:

Lance's Lab

Lance has a basic way of communicating. He has an i-pad2 that has been fixed to the wall. He has a personal satellite which can connect to earth. Lance has various internet Apps. Such as, Facebook, Twitter, Skype and a g-mail account. He also posts videos taken around the station onto You-tube, so everyone can see what he’s up to.

                                                                                                                                             Experiments:

Scientists have noticed that the effects of living in space can cause memory loss and the loss of taste buds, Lance will record his experience with this. He has said he will also grow bacteria on special dishes to test the effects of gravity on a different form of life. He has reserved some space in his recording equipment where he keeps his samples. They are kept at a perfect temperature constantly.

Music:

For his recording setup, Lance has a large metal supercomputer that takes up one fifth of his station. There is a microphone attached to the equipment. For instruments, he has a keytar, which is the genius combination of a keyboard and an electric guitar. It is used for pop and techno music. There is a valcro strap that keeps it stuck to the wall. He has blank C.Ds that he inserts into a customizer slot in supercomputer. Once inside, he can burn music onto the disc, he also can edit the artwork for the album cover and the C.D cover when it is still inside.  

Exercise:

Even up in the I.S.S it is important to stay fit. That is why Lance has good equipment. Firstly, he has a specially designed treadmill, it has shoulder pads which he wears, they are connected to the treadmill with tough elastic straps that hold him down. By wearing them he won’t float away by the lack of gravity. Secondly, he has dance mixes he plays on the pod’s built in stereo system (Lance loves to dance). The last form of exercise is his Jenny Craig D.V.D he plays on his built in D.V.D player. He watches it on his 52 inch T.V which is mounted into the wall.

Living:

­­Just like on earth, some things still need to be done. Such as sleeping and disposal of waste. He also needs to relax and enjoy himself. For a bed, Lance has something similar to what you might find on earth. It is a small pod-like shape, inside is a mattress, a pillow and a blanket. There are seatbelts to stop Lance from floating away. He has a mini-fridge where he keeps his freeze dried food which he cooks in his microwave that has been designed especially to cook freeze dried meals. In his fridge, he also has water. In the cold, vast area of space, water is kept in small packets; each packet has a nozzle coming out the top. When he squeezes the bag, a small amount of water comes out the nozzle.

Lance has his own bathroom. His bathroom contains a “urinal pipe” which pushes liquid out into space. For bigger waste, something similar is used. It is a toilet-shaped object which disposes excrement when you push the red button above it.                                                                                                                      There are cloths in the bathroom which he uses to clean his belongings by squirting a small amount of water onto the cloth; he also puts water on his toothbrush to clean his teeth. It’s important to stay clean in space. Lance is a gaming addict; he has a PlayStation 3 and games such as Monster Hunter Freedom Unite and Final Fantasy one to fourteen. He also has a magnetic chess board so he can challenge other passengers on the I.S.S.

Lance will be on the I.S.S for three months. He will carry on life as a citizen of New Zealand by doing things regularly done on earth, such as sleeping, exercise, record music and of course work on his project.

Chris Lances Lab

Lance Bass is a world famous Pop Star. He has been sent on a three month expedition to the ISS, International Space Station, to see how well he will cope in space. This report will explain how he will do his washing, exercising, experiments, record his music communicate  with his friends on earth and do his day to day tasks in his space module.

Music

In the mini recording booth, Lance has foot straps to keep him from floating off while recording. His guitar is attached with Velcro to the wall so it doesn’t float when he is not using it. He has a mini recording sound desk where he can playback his songs, and adjust to his liking. He then saves the finished versions onto a usb stick, and inserts it onto his Laptop. There he adds images and sends it through a satellite dish which is under his module. The satellite then sends waves to a big satellite before going down to earth.

Experiments

Lance is required to make experiments in space as part of his mission. He will be figuring out how to use a pen in space. How to write with it without the pens ink all flowing out, or just staying in one place. One idea he has found is to use a pressurised air valve which will let the ink flow for one minute if you blow into it. There is also a button which opens/closes a hatch inside the pen, so the ink doesn’t flow when not being used. This is being tested at the moment.

Exercise

In space there is no gravity to pull you down while you exercise. So in Lances module there is a treadmill with squat poles on the side. These also have shoulder straps so he has something to keep him strapped to the ground. He also has moveable foot straps. Which move when you run.

 Communication

In space communication is very similar to back on earth. Lance has a laptop and a T.V for communication. The signal is sent through a satellite dish which is under his module. This is sent to the nearest large satellite before being sent down to earth.  Also on his laptop  he has Skype which he can speak with his family and friends. His T.V is very similar to his laptop. It has Skype also and is used for business, interviews and playing music live.

Living

Doing daily tasks is hard because there is barely any water and you aren’t allowed much energy for your devices.  Even when eating it is different. To heat up his food lance has a solar powered microwave which uses sun beams to warm food until it gets cooked. He will Lance Bass is a world famous Pop Star.

Doing daily tasks is hard because there is barely any water and you aren’t allowed much energy for your devices.  Even when eating it is different. To heat up his food lance has a solar powered microwave which uses sun beams to warm food until it gets cooked. He will use a soapy type of water to wash his clothes. And instead of using a normal dryer. He has a sun window. Where a very strong beam of sunlight goes through and sun dries the clothes. For personal hygiene he has a suction toilet. Which has a pipe to suck up his waste. For a shower all he will a towel and a packet of water. He will use a small amount to refresh himself every day. He will also use a small amount of water for brushing his teeth. As for sleeping he will not be able to sleep in an ordinary bed as gravity would lift the sheets and Lance into the air. So he uses a sleeping bag stuck to the wall. He will also have a seat belt so he won’t float up.  Lance will also have a laptop and T.V to relax. His T.V has every channel available. And the laptop is stocked full of the latest games. All expenses paid.

Lance Bass has been on the ISS for one month. He still has two months to go. So far he has figured out some answers to the pen problem. He has carried out his operation on the funnel effect pen. He has had meeting with developers all around the world using Skype. His exercise programs have been going well. His living has been difficult though. He has been finding it odd. Sometimes forgetting he’s in space. On his time left he said he would like to finish his work on the pen experiment. He would also like to see his family soon and is considering taking the next flight home.

William's Lances Lab

Lance the famous pop star singer has signed a contract to fly up to the ISS for 3 months to experience what music sounds like in space. People at NASA have ordered a space Pod to be built for him .On the I.S.S it will encourage his mind to work apropeletle to the conditions of zero gravity

Protecting the Lab

In space comets and space junk fly around, sometimes a piece space junk hits the ISS if it hits a big part of the ISS it courses no problem but if it hits a smaller part, it can mean trouble laces lab has been installed with protective padding to stop it from making a big hole in the side.

LAB

The lab is the most protected part of the craft it has blast doors, for the experiment area the glass tubes are strapped down to the table he will be particles in space to find different chemicals.

Music

In his recording room he has a laptop which records music.

Communication

Lances laptop is connected to a transmitter which connects up to a satalight. It has a webcam to show his face.

Exercise

Bolted to the floor is a spiral treadmill that has velcrove belt and comes with Velcro shoes to stick to the treadmill so he doesn’t float away.

Living

His bed is attached to the wall. The bed is like a sleeping bag. Installed into the wall is a sink that only drops one drop of water at a time. For entertainment there is a TV connected to the wall and on the compartment there are some cool games.

Over all Lances trip to space will be a great achievement for man and music players alike.

Leihana's Lance's Lab Report.

Lance Bass is a famous rock star who is in space for three months. He has to write music, do experiments, eat, communicate with the people on earth and basically live a normal life. In this report you will learn how Lance lives in the ISS (International Space St ation)  and why he is there.

Communication:

Lance has a specialised TV so he can communicate with his family back on Earth. When any member of his family is on Skype or any internet site, he will get a little message at the bottom of his TV (which is touch)        

Music:

Lance has a soundproof studio with his basic instruments such as the bass, guitar, microphone and the drums.  His instruments have Velcro on the back of them and the Velcro is stuck to the wall so they don’t float, his microphone is on a stand and is bolted into the ground and is adjustable. He has a recording box with auto tune just to make his voice a bit better.

Living:

Lance has to wash, so he uses water which is in a special container so the water doesn’t float up and hit the electrical parts in the lab, his towel is stuck on Velcro so like the water it doesn’t float and he has normal toiletry such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and a comb. Lance has to brush his teeth with water and toothpaste then has to spit it back into his towel. He has nice clothes for space they are coloured grey and blue and he has special Velcro socks and shoes so he doesn’t float. (But if he wants to float he just takes he socks and shoes off!)  Lance’s food is a bit better for starters he has a snack machine! He doesn’t have to cook anything he just has to push a button and the machine has breakfast, lunch and dinner stored in it for his three months.

Relaxing:

Lance has his own room just for fun, relaxing and even exercise. He has a TV, stereo, a DVD player and a lot of games. One of them is Guitar Hero (it’s like practice for him.) Lance wears his Velcro socks, so he can play without getting distracted while he is floating! He has a sleeping bag which is attached to the wall and when he is about to go to sleep he puts a strap over the top so he doesn’t float away in his sleep.

His exercise is just three basic machines an AB circle pro, treadmill and Wii Fit. Lance AB circle pro is pretty easy he only uses his arms to hold him down and he swings his legs from left to right. The treadmill is a little bit different he has to be strapped down. With his Wii Fit he is wearing his Velcro socks and his board also has Velcro so he is attached to it.

Why go into space???

1)     Lance is going into space for inspiration.

2)    Also he is doing an experiment.

3)     His experiment is: Why do you lose your memory and sense of taste in space???

The ISS is very comfortable for Lance. He has all he needs to live well and is improving h is space skills every day! GO LANCE!

Lances Lab

Lance Bass the singing super star is going to live in space for three months. Just to make things more complicated he still has to record music, live, do day to day tasks and still experiment on space at the same time. But the hard thing will be that he has to still take care of business back on Earth.

Living

In Lances Lab he will have a Velcro board. On the board there are quite a lot of water sashays. The water sashays hold 1.5L of water. They are velcroed down so that they don’t float away and damage expensive equipment. Also on the board there are velcroed towels so that when you do your teeth you can wipe your mouth.

Food & Cooking

Up in space you don’t get the best food. Lance has got biscuits that are in 40kg bags. There are six fridges around the craft and they are all full of Tuna and Chop Chop Chicken and other caned treats. Lance has some water but he doesn’t use much of it. When Lance needs to heat up his food he uses a microwave with Velcro to hold the food in place.

Clothing

Lance has taken along some sunglasses so that when he looks out a window he won’t get blinded   from the sun. Lance will wear some special clothing with heavy boots so that he is able to walk on the moon.

Exercise

Lance has put weights in his room but they are strapped down so that they won’t float away. Also he has body armour so then he can be strapped down to the floor to make it as hard as on earth. Just to make it even harder when he brings the weights down it would be easy but when he pulls it up it would be very hard.

Toilet

Lances toilet is small but it does the same job. It has a strong suction pump. The pump leads to a big tank at the bottom of the I.S.S.

Recording Music

Lance is a singing super star is still going to record music in space. In his room he has 2 Ipads, one computer, and some guitars and all of these are in sound proof walls.

Communication

Lance has one computer that has Facebook, Twitter and Skype on his favourites that is all ready to go.

Experiments

Lance is experimenting on a Cell phone working in space. He is trying to see if he will get a cell phone signal in space by putting a signal in the space craft and he will try call his family without them knowing.

Bed

Lance has a special bed that pumps oxegin into it even if something goes wrong .  His bed is great because the temperature can change quite quick.

Fun And Relaxing

When lance has nothing to do he will play magnetic games with his friends on the space craft

Lance is hoping to be back on earth and be with his family again he will be trying to get the next flight home.

Lance;s Lab

Lance's Lab

Lance Bass the pop star is going into space for three months. These are the requirements for living in the space station.

SLEEPING

          Lance has to have a special bed. His bed is just below the ceiling facing up. He is strapped in the bed so he doesn’t bump into walls and float around the room. The straps are tight but roomy enough to move.

MUSIC

          Lance needs a studio to record his music. All his instruments are strapped down in the cupboard. In the corner there is a desk with a recorder to record his songs.

COMMUNICATION

          Everyone needs communication, so does Lance. Lance has a wireless computer and internet for Skype.

LIVING

             Food and washing is a problem in space. There’s no gravity in space so you can’t just cook your food it will just float everywhere. He has a snack machine it has breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, all premade. Washing is difficult. Lance has a special shower. It’s like a cupboard so there is a roof; it is full to the top with water. He has to wear an air mask.

FUN

              What is Lance going to do for fun? Lance has a plasma T.V. screen and a Wii in a comfortable room.  He is strapped down to the ground while playing Wii.

SCIENCE

While in space Lance must do an explanation on: Why we lose our taste in space.

               So Lance must have special living requirements in space. It’s very different in space. When lance gets back from space we will know two things: One, why we lose our taste Two,  what it’s like living in space.
