Youngsters will learn to use binoculars and telescopes, and how to chart their viewing highlights in a stargazing notebook. A photographic trip to the moon will inspire kids to map its many phases, calculate a person's lunar weight, and find out what happens during an eclipse. Voyaging farther out also reveals why the other planets wouldn't make a good home for humans, and will help children understand why Earth is avery special place.

This is a little story of a seven-year journey of faith with the Great I Am, acknowledging only Him to present you to your real bashert and what it is to be called upon to achieve greater consciousness. You learn how to become an understanding and a loving mate, what it is to truly comfort the one whom you really love. This is what its like when you faithfully wait and let Gods love rule your life. This is what unconditional devotion looks like. This is a leap of faith for me. Witness a love that can unlock racism, segregation, prejudice, etc. This is who Jesus Christ has called me to be. I am a freedom fighter for equality of life. This is my mission. He has suffered our pain, and He has chosen me to pick up my cross for Him in making our world a better place. Teaching the human race, that God loves all mankind; so we may be seen, as brothers and sisters, and welcomed as equals, just as Ive pleaded for in 2007. For Dr. Martin Luther Kings, Jr.s Dream; for the Lion of Judea, Jesus Christs prayer of salvation and love for us all as believers, exclusively as His children to be unified as one!
The year is 2051. Every probe sent to reconnoiter up close of Candor Canyon, Mars has failed. Accidents? NASA Director, Ken Hsu, thinks not. Suspecting a sinister hand, he surreptiously re-directs the latest probe sent to Mars from its destined mission plan, toward Candor where it finds an anomaly, an ancient structure not wrought by natural random processes. DoD immediately steps in to investigate, much to the chagrin of President Diane Keynes, who worries not only about the ever-increasing influence DoD exerts over space exploration, but also fears any semblance of catastrophe will sink her re-election bid in the coming year. Blinded by ambition, and her hatred for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Henry Santos, she is unaware of an odious danger much closer to her than a dead alien ruin on Mars, much more present and quite alive, threatening her administration, her sanity, and her life. Though tough, strong willed, and astute, she needs help. Will she get it before it's too late? At risk is more than her singular life. All humanity on Earth could suffer should she fail.
