Did you miss our holiday party last night during the LiveChat? 43 were in attendance to play some games, here a story, and receive a gift. Did you miss out? Well, take a look in the archive, press play, and listen to Mr. Gerard talk about Santa Tech. See, according to Mr. Gerard's 5 year old granddaughter, the Santa at the mall is not the real Santa. No, the REAL Santa is at Disney World! Or, the North Pole (he has to make his toys!). So Mr. Gerard used some contacts at WDW to get some info from the big man himself. He found that Santa is a little more high-tech then you might think, and relies on help from NASA as well!
See for yourself in the archive how Santa does his job utilizing the latest technology and advanced knowledge of physics and time/space. You can also watch our OLC members compete in a game of Pictionary! And at the end, everyone received a free gift: a downloadable desktop image. But, it is the holiday season, so this gift is also available to all those who read this blog! Here is a snapshot of the desktop:
Take a close look. Each one of those little squares is an image of a galaxy! Even the script 'Merry Christmas'! To download this large file (3.1 MB), you must be logged into the OLC website and then click here. You should then be able to download it.
From the staff of INSPIRE at Oklahoma State University, Marshall Space Flight Center, and Kennedy Space Center, we wish a joyous holiday and a very merry Christmas!
