The journey of light is longer than you might think. The first step of light is when light is emitted from a light source like the sun. Next the light reaches your eye. Since there is many different parts of the eye, it has to travel through each part of the eye. Each different part has its own job to do. 

Once the light reaches the eye the first thing that it will go through is the cornea. once it goes through the cornea, light passes through the aquaeous humor, then into the pupil. Next to goes into the Vitroues humor and in to the lens. One of the last this is the retina, this part flips the picture Finally the light reaches the optic nerve. The optic nerve send the picture to the brain and you see the picture.

-       Yesterday we went to the Chaffee Zoo. We have been working on the zoo project fo quite some time now. We have created many different elements and pu it into a website. Finally, after several weeks we went to the zoo. 
        I personally didn't have the best time. We were there too long. Towards the end, we had like an hour of doing nothing. Yes we did get to see our animal but everything else wasn't that fun. I did have a good time walking around with my friends and seeing my animal up close. Rather than looking at pictures. We did get to see how the animals really act. I felt that our information was very close to the information given by the zoo.   I think that next year they should make the trip shorter. We have already learned everything about our animal so it really wasn't necessary to stay that long.

-     Have you ever wondered why you see colors? Or what makes you see a rainbow? After it rains you usually see a rainbow. You will only see rainbows if the sun is shining. You see rainbows because when the sunlight hits the water that is in the air, colors are reflected into our eyes. 
     Have you wondered why we see black or white? In black objects, all of the colors are absorbed and none are rflected. But in a white object, all of the colors are reflected and none are absorbed. So black is the absence of color and white is all of the colors. That is why they are  so different. Why then would glass be colorless? Tjis is because glass transmits all of the colors making it transarent.
