Teen+Science+Cafe+Alex+Dornburgs+Expedition+to+Antartica

This past Friday on March 2nd I went to the Daily Planet Cafe to hear a riveting story on the expedition of Alex Dornburg (man in the picture on the left) as he went to Antarctica. The night started with a bingo game of the way animals have developed ways to survive their environments. This game of natural selection taught me some of the different traits animal develop in order to survive such as certain fish in Antarctica develop ways to maintain heat and the ones who didn't died. Alex studies death and he finds this study to be interesting because it teaches us ways to prolong those that would go extinct. His expeditions consisted of him taking pictures and discovering new aquatic life. I found this to be extra exhilarating because my favorite animal is the penguin and I hope to one day go on an expedition to Antarctica.
