Blast off on a mission to explore outer space and the objects in it.
Learn about rocket propulsion with balloons and chemically powered
rockets. Build a telescope and star map to investigate the stars and
constellations. Assemble a model of the solar system and learn about the
planets that share it.
Find out how Earth’s rotation creates day and
night, how Earth’s axis and revolution around the sun causes the
seasons, and how the moon’s rotation around Earth gives us the phases of
the moon. See for yourself how meteorites formed the craters on the
moon. Make a moon flipbook and a moon calendar. Build a sundial and a
solar collector to experiment with the sun. Grasp a comet’s tail and
learn about how meteoroids become falling stars.
