- StudentWhat is this
- StudentWhats a fruit fly
Bugscope TeamFruit flies are very small flies, not much bigger than a few grains of sand. They're named that way because they are attracted to rotting fruit. You'll often find them hovering around a trash can if you forget to empty it for a while
- Studentoh
- Studentew
- Studentwhat part of the fly is this
- StudentWhat is a haltere ?
Bugscope Teama haltere is found in pairs on insects that have wings. the haltere is used to keep the insect balanced during flight. the haltere bangs against the insects body, acting like a stabilizer.

- Studentmiss Smaha loves science
- StudentScott are you using a compound microscope??
Bugscope TeamNo, this is an elecron microscope instead of a light microscope. We focus a very fine beam of electrons, essentially a beam of electricity, onto the sample and observe the interaction
- Studentim in clan £pac
- Studentcacadas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! run
- StudentI don't want to see another bug
- Studentthis is cool
- Studentthat is soooooooooooooo weird
- Studentomg!!!!!
- Studentwhy is there stof on the eyes

- TeacherHi again. This is Tony. We were trying to drive instead of click and center. That confused us a bit.
Bugscope TeamYeah, unfortunately with so many clients there was a lag in the server response which probably made the Driving tool more difficult than Click to Center
- TeacherAlso, you had some great images today.
- Bugscope Teamyou did great tony. driving is hard when there is some lag.
- Bugscope TeamMiss Smaha if you want to drive a bit now you can collect more images for your database.
- 11:41 am
- TeacherWe don't know why two different computers ended up with teacher controls. Did that mess t hings up?
Bugscope TeamI believe that despite them being visible, only one should have been able to sucessfully control. It shouldn't have done any harm beyond being confusing
- Bugscope Teamah, no, we gave the controls over to some students because we thought they might like that. sorry if that confused you.
- Bugscope TeamI can stick around for a bit to answer questions
- Bugscope Teamtony, your students are very lively, and interesting. if was a lot of fun this session.
- Bugscope Teamyeah, they had some good questions and certainly kept us on our toes
- TeacherThanks again, guys. By the way, I told Christ the King School in Lombard about your site. Did they sign up?
- Bugscope Teamyou guys I am bailing out, trying to beat the nerds for lunch
- Bugscope TeamI don't think I've seen a proposal come in from them yet, no
- Bugscope Teamthank you!
- Bugscope TeamWe'll keep an eye open though, thanks for the referral!
- Bugscope Teami don't see a proposal from christ the king school, but maybe if its in another name?
- TeacherOkay - bye. Hungry here too.
- Bugscope Teamsee you tony. great session.
- Bugscope TeamBye Tony!
