What kinds of future space missions should we fund and conduct?

Students take observations from their everyday life and build scientific models to try to understand how phenomena, such as changes in the moon’s appearance, seasons, and gravity work. Through data collection and analyzation students later use their understanding of what can be learned through space missions to determine the trade-offs of different proposed space missions.

Core Science Content: Earth, moon, moon phases, seasons, axial tilt, Solar system, planetary motion, gravity
