On October 11th our physics class visited the Manitoba Hydro thermal generating station and both of the acc campuses in Brandon. The most interesting part of the trip was visiting he acc campuses even though i wasn't and am not thinking of attending there if was interesting to see all of the different shops and labs and every thing they had. In my opinion to make the trip more useful to me we could have visited the other university. I learned that they do not run the coal burning things at Manitoba hydro all the time only on the odd day and that the smoke coming out of the towers s steam so its not as much pollution as you would think there would be.
