In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners will see how UV light affects colors over time by making their own sunprint on construction paper.

In this activity, learners make their own pinhole viewer in order to measure the size of the sun.

Use this model to demonstrate the goal of NASA's Kepler Mission: to find extrasolar planets through the transit method.

In this outdoor activity, learners explore UV rays from the Sun and ways to protect against these potentially harmful rays.

Use this Moon Map Guide to help learners identify features on the Moon, while looking through a telescope.

In this fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity, learners construct a model of our place in the Milky Way Galaxy and the distribution of stars, with a quarter and some birdseed.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners make 3-dimensional models of the Earth and Moon.

Many people get water from a source deep underground, called groundwater.
