My science discovery is on the Apple iPad air 2. The Apple iPad air 2 is an iPad that is supposed to be very light and a LOT percent slimmer. I know! When I heard about this my exact thoughts were "This is going to be awful." Actually, once I did some research on it, it's actually pretty cool! (It's not out yet though. I just pre-ordered mine over the weekend. I did as much research as I possibly could!"
So, I gathered some pros and cons (positives and negatives) about the iPad air2.
Pros:
  • Amazing, thin (6.1 millimeters) design. It weighs a little under 1 pound!
  • Incredibly powerful A8X chip (Everything runs faster)
  • Touch Identification included (No one can steal your iPad, it has a fingerprint scanner.)
  • Upgraded camera (You can take even higher quality selfies.)
Cons:
  • Battery life could be better. (10 hour battery life isn't bad, but I would prefer around 16 hours. Just an opinion.)
  • Some people will miss the mute switch. (There's a small but visible mute switch on the side of the iPad.)
I'm really excited to get my iPad air 2!

My science discovery is on the Nintendo 64. The Nintendo 64 is a video game console from 1996. It was originally released in Japan on June 23, 1996. It was released in America in late September of 96. Some of its more well known games are: Super Mario 64, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, Mario Kart 64, Donkey Kong 64, and Diddy Kong Racing. In 1996, the Nintendo 64 was the console that everyone wanted. Take a second, and compare the graphics on a PS4 or Xbox 1 and compare it to a Nintendo 64 or a Sega Genesis. Amazing, isn't it?

My science discovery is on the company Sony. Sony is a Japanese company which is most commonly known because of the games it has developed. The company first started in 1987. It didn't actually start with video games and consoles like you think it would. It actually started out selling simple products like headphones and radios, etc. The first actual Sony console was the PS1. (Playstation 1) It has since made 4 different copies, each one getting better and better every time.
