Gerry Anderson's PREMISE: in the Late 1960S, the United States
Gerry Anderson’s UFO PREMISE: In the late 1960s, the United States government issued a report officially denying the existence of Unidentified Flying Objects. The government agencydesigned to look into the phenomenon, Project Blue Book, was also closed down and people were led to believe that (as far as the government was concerned) UFOs had not come to Earth. The format of the television series takes this occurrence as a cover-up by the government in an attempt to hide the fact that we were not only visited by creatures from space, but brutally attacked. Their reasoning was that mass hysteria and panic would result if the common man discovered that his world was being invaded by extraterrestrials. So, in secret, the major governments of the world created SHADO − Supreme Headquarters, Alien Defense Organi- zation. From it’scenter of operations hidden beneath a film studio (where bizarre comings and goings would remain commonplace), SHADO commands a fleet of submarines (armed with sea-to-air strikecraft), aircraft, land vehicles, satellites and a base on the Moon. MAJOR CHARACTERS: COMMANDER ED STRAKER−Leader of SHADO. He is totally dedicated to his job, almost to the point of obsession. COLONEL ALEC FREEMAN−Straker’ssecond-in-command. COLONEL PAULFOSTER−Former test pilot recruited to SHADO. CAPTAIN PETER CARLIN−Commander and interceptor pilot of Skydiver1. MISS EALAND−Straker’ssecretary for his film studio president cover. LT . MARK BRADLY−Moonbase interceptor pilot. LT . LEW WATERMAN−Moonbase interceptor pilot, later promoted to SkydiverCaptain. LT . JOAN HARRINGTON−Moonbase Operative. LT .

MUSIC by BARRY GRAY the Earth Is Faced with a Power Threat from an Dateline:1980 EXTRATERRESTRIAL Source
A GERRY ANDERSON PRODUCTION UFO MUSIC BY BARRY GRAY The Earth is faced with a power threat from an Dateline:1980 EXTRATERRESTRIAL source... we have moved After a decade of creating pioneering puppet series made for children, the Andersons took their first into an age where SCIENCE FICTION has become steps into live-action, with the 1969 feature film FACT. We need to DEFEND ourselves. Doppelgänger (re-titled outside Britain as Journey To The Far Side Of The Sun). This science-fiction film COMMANDER ED STRAKER approached its outer space subject matter with a gritty realism, and would set the tone for what was to be their first live-action television series:UFO . This new series took as a starting point the pioneering work of Dr Christiaan N. Barnard, the surgeon who performed the world’s first heart transplant operation. In UFO a dying race of aliens travel across vast distances of space to harvest organs from human beings to help ensure their own survival. To combat this threat the United Nations created SHADO, a top-secret organisation utilising the latest technology available to defend the Earth. To complement the series, the Andersons frequent musical collaborator Barry Gray created a multifaceted score that gave the programme its own musical identity. This Album is the very first commercial release of Gray’s score, making it finally available to more listeners worldwide. Welcome to SHADO SHADO – Supreme Headquarters Alien Defence Organisation – is based from a secret headquarters deep beneath the Harlington Straker Film Studio. Earth’s first line of defence is SID, the Space Intruder Detector, a satellite in Earth’s orbit created to spot incoming UFOs. -

High School Science Item Specification- SY20-21
SY2020 -2021 Idaho Science Specifications SCIENCE AT HIGH SCHOOL KEVIN M. CHANDLER MATHEMATICS & SCIENCE ASSESSMENT COORDINATOR [email protected] Introduction The Idaho Science Specifications are documents used by professional test developers to create clusters and stand-alones aligned to the Idaho State Science Standards (ISSS). Each of the Idaho State Science Standards has its own specification and has been vetted, edited and approved by Idaho science educators. Dimensions in the Idaho State Science Standards Science standards were previously siloed into different content areas. Students would go to different classes for different content. For example, learning how to calculate the velocity and acceleration of objects, and how those objects are comprised of atoms in a physical science classroom, memorizing the structures and functions of organelles in a life science class, and studying rocks in an earth science class. Each of these content areas represent specific scientific facts and knowledge. There are similarities in those siloed content areas. In each one, students learn about the content by forming questions about the natural world, designing and carrying out experiments, collecting and analyzing data, and writing lab reports summarizing their findings. These are scientific activities that students practice in each of those classes. Scientists however, employ certain habits of mind to engage and explain the natural world. For example, after a physicist, a biochemist, or a geologist has carried out an investigation, they will look for and identify patterns in the data to explain cause and effect relationships between variables. The scientists will define the parameters of the system, and monitor changes that occur within it as inputs are varied at different scales. -
