More Information
In this new Morehead program, students participate in NCSCOS-aligned lessons that explore earth science and astronomy concepts. Students experience exciting astronomy visualizations in our mobile planetarium, explore moon phases and light, learn to map planetary surfaces, hunt for exoplanets, and much more!
What do maps help us learn? How can you learn about a planet that is covered in clouds? What kinds of tools do you need? Students will explore ways that NASA and other space agencies use satellites and other spacecraft to indirectly map the surfaces of planets – including our own Earth!
