some good sources

http://space.about.com/cs/astronomerbios/a/edmundhalley.htm
-this article is funny because it has a version for k-4, 5-8, 9-12, and then full. (i like the k-4)

http://www.seds.org/messier/xtra/Bios/halley.html
-this site is okay, the links on seem better though

theres also a book in the library called "Halley's quest : a selfless genius and his troubled Paramore" by Julie Wakefi. its like 300 pages, i dont know how good it is but it seems pretty legit.

Hey all,
I've searched the net and hit up the libz a few times and found some really interesting stuff about Halley. I think we need to plan a meeting time for sometime before SB. I'm free almost anytime Wednesday and a small window on Thursday from about 6:00-7:30. Let me know.

So, we're going to meet soon and I've done work on the powerpoint, however I don't think I'll be able to do much more until I see what you guys have so that I can bring it all together in a proper conclusion. Vidula, how's the music coming along? Do you think it will work?

how many slides do you all have in total? I don't want to end up with too many than you or too few.
