Alright so someone who goes to my school (I don't know him very well though) is trying to win a special contest. Here I'll just copy and paste what he wrote up:
So, if you haven't heard already, I am trying to win Axe's Apollo Space Academy contest. Doing so would get me a spot at their space training camp in Florida, and a very good chance to go into SPACE. Yes, that's right. Actual space.
The way you win is simple, yet very very difficult: it is done by the number of votes you receive. As of right now, I am in 11th place out of God knows how many people. But I need to be in at least 2nd or above to be able to go. (Not tenth like I previously thought(which it also says for some reason on the site, but whatever.)) I only have until April 30th to get there.
I want to go into space for the sole opportunity to go into space, but I also want to do it for my Dad. Even though I love astronomy and space, he is way more into it than I am, and if I could get all of these votes for him, I would. But he wouldn't be able to make it up to space with back problems that he has so I am trying to do this for him. Because I think it would mean a lot to him if I could actually make it up there.
Anyway....
So, why do you have this event on your facebook you ask? Well I am asking you for your help...
You only need to do a few simple things to help my cause:
1. Go to the link I will provide and vote. That is most important. It takes literally seconds, and you use Facebook to do it.
2. Invite your whole friends list on Facebook to this event. (Trust me, dumber stuff has been shared over Facebook. They shouldn't mind that much). This way the word gets around and I actually have a fighting chance at winning.
3. That's it. That's all you have to do to help me out. I guess you can wish me luck if you would like to after that.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and hopefully I can do the impossible and make it to at least 2nd place and hopefully to space.
