  1. Hi Nova! My name is Mia from Yaldhurst Model School, I am a year 8. Wow! I liked your research, it was interesting and I found it really engaging and eye-catching.

    I wonder why the asteroid is called Bennu? Sometimes, asteroids can be named after people, places, or just have a coded name. I really like space, I enjoy reading about it and studying it. Did you know that the more smaller a body in space is, the more potato shape it gets?

    There isn't really anything to improve on, although, it would be nice if you could add in the answer to my question in your blog post.

    Fantastic work!

      I did not know that! Interesting!and I do wonder why the asteroid was called Bennu. it was named after a Egyptian bird called Bennu. I love space as well I want to be an astronomer or an astronaught when I'm Older.

  2. Hi Nova. I am Miss Gay, a teacher at Greymouth High School. This visual is very clear and I like the picture of Asteroid Bennu. Do you think that there will be evidence of water in the dirt? Thank you for such an informative post.

    1. Hi Miss Gay,
      I watched a documentary on Mars and NASA have found traces of water on Mars. they think it was used to carve out the Valles Marineris the largest canyon in the galaxy found so far. w]Well, how else would the massive canyon form? dis you know the\at when Galileo Galilee looked at the moon he thought the dark spots of the moon were signs of life? they are actually just darker moon dust on the surface of the moon.
