   On February 20th, online presentations were held using zoom by the hosts, Prof. Rene and Art Kimura, who are the chiefs of the consortium supported by Hawaii University Space Laboratory. Forty-six students from our school participated.
   They illustrated the extraordinary phenomena that occur in outer space by showing various scientific demonstrations concerning the life in ISS (International Space Station), the universe and rockets. We could learn a lot about outer space. Though it was difficult, we could understand more than before.
   After the lectures we had a Q&A session. We did some research about space and local news about it in advance therefore we could have an active exchange.
