This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners build a scale model of the universe with little more than adding machine tape.

In this two-part activity, learners map a navigation plan to get from Earth to Mars and back. In activity one, learners represent the orbital paths of Earth through dance and dramatic movement.

In this two-part activity, learners explore the Earth and Sun's positions in relation to the constellations of the ecliptic with a small model.

“Exploring the Solar System: Pocket Solar System” is a hands-on activity in which visitors make a scale model of the distances between objects in our solar system.

In this activity, learners investigate the concepts of relative size and distance by creating a basic model of the solar system.

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