"Exploring the Universe: Filtered Light" demonstrates how scientists can use telescopes and other tools to capture and filter different energies of light to study the universe.

In this math activity related to light, learners assemble a photometer and use it to estimate the power output of the Sun.

In this activity, learners use a flashlight, a glass of water, and some milk to examine why the sky is blue and sunsets are red.

This activity generates learner excitement about light through the creation of a room-sized rainbow.

In this activity, learners experiment with shadows and light sources to understand the relationship between the angle illumination and the shadow's length.

This fun, nighttime hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore how long it takes for light from different objects in the universe to reach Earth.

In this activity, learners create a "mini sky" in a glass of water in a dark room.

This is an activity to do when there is a solar eclipse!

This is a classic exercise for visualizing the scale of the Solar System.

In this activity, learners experiment and observe how the color of materials that cover the Earth affects the amounts of sunlight our planet absorbs.
