Students will explore answers to questions including: How do scientists think the solar system was formed? What are constellations for? How do meteors create craters? Why does Earth’s moon appear to change shape throughout the month? Just how far away are the planets in our solar system? What is the earth made of? How do astronauts survive in space?
