When using any form of technology, especially the Internet, it is essential to have a back-up plan in case your technology fails on the day you plan to use it in class. Below is information and suggestions for how students could continue to work on this project in the event of an Internet connection problem. 

    Mirror Site Information

    A mirror site is basically an exact copy of this web site which is located on a different computer away from the Stevens campus. It acts as a back-up in case our computer server, network, or electrical power is down for any reason. The mirror site is updated once a day (usually in the wee hours of the morning) to reflect any changes made to the web site in the previous 24 hours. 
You can access the Gulf Stream Voyage mirror site at the web site address below:

http://www.k12science2.org/curriculum/gulfstream/

Write down the mirror site address in a place where you will have quick and easy access to it if need be.  If possible, print out this page to keep for future reference.

    Real time Data Sites

    Most lessons within this project have a saved image that may be used in case the Real Time Data Site is not available.  For additional possible sites to use in the lesson refer to Real Time Data Links
