In this math-based activity, learners model the intensity of light at various distances from a light source, and understand how astronomers measure the amount of sunlight that hits our planet and othe

In this experiment, learners work in teams to investigate how the color of a surface influences its ability to reflect light and therefore heat.

In this space science activity, learners explore transits and the conditions when a transit may be seen.

In this activity, learners observe colors in the flame of a burning candle to explore connections between matter, light, color and temperature -- basic concepts of matter and energy.

Working in groups, learners model the continuous destruction and creation of ozone (O3) molecules, which occur in the ozone layer.

In this activity, learners test the Law of Reflection based on experimental evidence. Learners produce raw data and explanations based on their data: pencil tracings of incident and reflection rays.

In this activity, learners make a scale model of the Solar System and learn the real definition of "space." Learners use the online calculator to create an appropriate scale to use as a basis for thei

In this activity, learners experience firsthand how marine animals' adaptive coloration camouflages them from prey.

In this activity, learners set up an experiment to investigate the effects of hot air on the path of a laser beam.
