In the early 1600s, Galilieo Galilei turned a new invention the telescope, upon the night sky, and a great advancment was made in the science of astromony. Galileo was the first scientist to view alein worlds in more detail than wpossible as with the naked eye. He saw that the moon's surface was not smooth, but that it had what looked like mountains. Even more important, he discovered approximatley four small bodies orbiting around the planet Jupiter. Galileo's discovery destroyed the bases for the belief that all bodies in the solar system revolved around Earth.

I just corrected the mistakes when I typed that and left some words still mistyped. ;)

Pelorus Jack is a famous Risso's dolphin who helped sailors. The sailors spotted him in1888. He was approximately thirteen feet long, he was of a white color with gray lines and shadings. Then he had a round, white head so he was recognizable by the sailors.

How he helped the sailors was pretty interesting. He guided ships through the dangerous passages of the French Pass. The French Pass was very rocky and there were dangerous currents and with Pelorus Jack's help no ships ever crashed. Soon he became locally famous and he was shown in postcards and newspapers. Pelorus Jack disappeared in April of 1912, people thought he just died of old age because of his light coloring.

An ant colony can have a few or many ants. The colony makes an ant hill then dig a nests under the ground. Ants have pretty busy lives there are special jobs for different ants.

Strange Bicycles

The largest bicycle was built in 1873. It was seventy-two feet long, wow is that true? This bicycle had thirty-four seats! I've never heard of that bike it's amazingly huge.

The smallest bicycle was VERY small. It weighed 2 pounds. This bike was only as long a a man's hand, that's not very wide at all. The wheels were only two inches across from each other. This bicycle could actually be ridden by a man, that seems impossible. . . I don't even know if it's true!

Pets

I. Good things about having pets
A. Fun
B. Playful
C. Cool
II. Bad things about having pets
A. responsibility
B. smelly
C. ultimate care, you have to keep your eye on it a lot.

Pets

There are many good things about pets, here are a few examples:
Pets are fun! Many of them love people, especially dogs, they're great pets, but I'd prefer horses of course. Most pets are playful too! Hamsters, puppies, kittens, foals, etc. Are very playful; the younger the more playful! Pets are cool, everyone loves to have pets!

Read this before you ever consider buying a pet if you don't have one. There are bad things about pet's too. Number one, they are a LOT of responsibility, you have to be sure to feed it two to three times a day, clean up it's waste and so on. They also can be smelly so you have to give your pets tons of baths so they don't stink up the house. Then that all leads up to ultimate care, you have to keep an eye on your pet to see if it's not being bad, you may have to train it if you buy it young, you might want a doggy door of kitty door so you don't have to keep opening the door for dogs and cats.

The Aardvark



Aardvarks are the size of a hog. They have long, pig-like snouts. They have thick, gray-brown hair. They have long ears, like a rabbit. Sharp claws, like a tiger. Then they have a long, sticky tongue, like an ant-eater.


How the Aardvark lives is much different than how people live. They dig and sleep in a cozy little burrow. Aardvarks hunt at night. Aardvarks are much like ant-eaters, they eat ants and termites. Aardvarks are mean little things, they rip open nests with sharp claws!
