In this space science activity, learners work together to create a human-powered orrery to model the movements of the four inner planets.

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

In this activity, learners use a simple 3D model to discover why the Moon has phases.

In this activity (on page 5 of PDF), learners use dry ice and household materials to make scientifically accurate models of comets.

In this activity, learners act as the Earth and observe how different angles between the Sun, Earth, and Moon affect the phases of the moon we see each month.

In this activity, learners build a scale model of the solar system using a roll of toilet paper.

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