E-asttle - Math results

So for my maths results I got a 4P which is less than my other score. I thought

aiming for a 5B or 5P.

Being hated all his life

Being hated all his life

A young boy had rocks being thrown at him , injuries caused on him and words said to him . He had desired for a better life. It was like he was a punching bag and everyone could hurt all the time, it was like he was invisible who people barely talked to . Most words he has ever said was ahhh,ouch , stop , please , stop hurting me and other things that sounds like you're being punished. He’s been saying those words everyday of his life and now that he has grown up he couldn’t ask for a better life.

Kiwi Kid’s News - Jupiter’s Moon spewing water jets

New evidence has shown that Jupiter’s icy moon Europa throws jets of water out into space. Scientists first reported the behaviour in 2013 using the Hubble telescope, but have now made a follow-up sighting. It is significant because Europa is one of the most likely places to find microbial life beyond Earth because of its huge ocean of liquid water. Flying through the jets with an instrumented spacecraft would be an effective way to test the possibility. Scientists are also looking at the possibility of attempting to capture a sample of water and bring it back to Earth for more detailed biological analysis.The suggestion is that the jets reach several hundred kilometres in height before then falling back onto Europa. The calculation based on the 2013-reported work estimated a volume of water equivalent to an Olympic swimming pool could be being spewed into space about every eight minutes.
