Space
For thousands of years, people have looked up at the night sky with questions. As technologies have advanced so to has our ability to investigate those questions. First, with telescopes, then with satellites, then space rovers, and ultimately with manned spacecraft. Humans have set foot on the moon, successfully landed rovers on Mars, and even photographed other galaxies. Take your classroom into the great beyond with these out-of-this-world resources.

Space Probes
A space probe is an unpiloted, unmanned device sent to explore space and gather scientific information.

Space Probes
Students watch a video about space probes and discuss the function of space probes. They use a photo gallery to compare and contrast different structures and equipment of probes, and make connections between the different structures and purposes of space probes. Then students use an interactive diagram of the Cassini space probe to imagine what instruments they might include on a probe of their own design.
