This all occurs over the two days of Open House, which took place on October 1st and 2nd this year. Over one hundred current Nardin students volunteered to give tours, help in classrooms, and help present clubs and sports. For just a few hours over two days, Nardin was on display and our ...

The year is slowly coming to a close, and summer is quickly approaching. This summer, there will be a total solar eclipse visible in the United States on August 21.

In a solar eclipse, the moon passes in front of the sun, temporarily blocking it out and letting the sun’s co...

Despite constant searching for habitable planets or possible life outside of our solar system, scientists have just made a monumental discovery that was quite unexpected. After more than a decade of research into the icy exterior of the moon, it was realized in 2015 that there has to be a global ocean underneath Enceladus’ ice shell since there are geysers spewing plumes of gases like water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and some other substances. Very cold and tiny, the -330°F and 157 mile long moon was the focus of plenty of more research, which resulted in the discovery of hydrogen molecules erupting from the geysers, too; therefore, there might be “hot spots,” or hydrothermal vents, in the ocean. If these vents do exist, there is a possibility of microorganisms living there, like the ones in our oceans. READ MORE »»
