In our Space Exploration Resource Package, we invite you to take your STEM curriculum or your students’ individual study of science, technology, engineering, and history to the final frontier—space! Our videos, lesson plans, activity ideas, vocabulary and literature resources connect your students to individuals with first hand experience in space exploration. Learn from engineers and scientists who worked on the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo projects. Find out about current initiatives putting rovers on Mars, flying unmanned spacecraft to all corners of the universe, and efforts to send humans to deep space. And through it all apply science, engineering and technology concepts studied in class to real world space scenarios and enhance your overall study of these subjects as well as history through the power of primary sources.
