Solar Outreach at Stone Mountain Middle School

16 September, 2011 (18:44) | Outreach | By: tramakers

Great Job!! Thanks Marie, Dan and Theo for working the outreach program for the Stone Mountain Middle School. We had planned some inside presentations as well as observing the sun through our solar scopes, but the clouds did not open up. So, the 400 6th grade students learned in the Media Center about our Sun and how NASA studies our nearest Star. They than went on a ride through the Solar system and took a much closer look at the planets and some it its moons. Great Students! Very good questions!!
