Memorial Middle School’s Second Space Night 2012-02-16

17 February, 2012 (11:22) | Events, Outreach | By: tramakers

Yesterday we helped Memorial Middle School in Conyers, a NASA Explorer School, celebrate its second Space Night. Student groups had build models of the space shuttle and were competing for the best design. A great project. I did participate in the event by taking a slot in the presentation rotation to talk about the NASA’s MSL Mission with Curiosity and by doing this expose the students to the different sciences associated with Space Exploration. In addition, using Celestia, we discovered Mars and its moons from a vantage point as astronauts would when approaching Mars.
