In this activity, learners are introduced to challenges of maintaining temperatures while living in space.

In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.

This interactive demonstration reintroduces learners to three states of matter (solid, liquid, gas), and introduces them to a fourth state of matter, plasma.

Using information from the My Place in Space lithograph, learners write and/or draw a postcard to friends and family as if they had gone beyond the interstellar boundary of our Solar System, into the
