Asteroids and Craters


Alex is studying Mercury in his astronomy class. He learned that the many craters on its surface were formed by asteroids crashing into the planet. Alex dropped pebbles of different shapes and sizes into a bowl of flour to illustrate the formation of craters. This was an activity that he really enjoyed. It is too bad that the picture doesn't show his sound effects.
