Join us for this 6-session STEM program As we Look at what makes Earth both ordinary and unique in our Solar system. We will explore Earth’s rock cycle, the atmosphere, liquid water as well as celestial objects like Mars and Titan and what life might look like elsewhere in the Universe.
Each session will include hands-on activities, games and/or demos along with discussion.
In our fifth of six classes, we continue looking out into the Solar System to answer the question, “Is Earth Unique?” The answer may surprise you because it is both “yes” and “no”! We will explore why - what does Earth have in common with other planets and moons? What is very different on the surfaces of these planets and moons? Could life survive anywhere else besides Earth? With video and pictures from various NASA missions, we can really see what each object is like close up, as we think about what it might mean for humans to survive off of Earth.
