Planetary rings and moons aren’t just fancy celestial accessories but active, dynamic structures that undergo daily temperature shifts, seasons, and even give birth to moons! This week we’ll be learning about the planets in our solar system that have their own rings and satellites.

Accessibility

  • We are a 5-minute walk off the Nassau G stop. Our building entry, elevator, and bathroom are all ADA compliant.
  • For this workshop we will be in Eco Lab 1, this room is brightly lit from a variety of fixtures and natural lighting.  Temperature varies.
  • Being a public space there is often overlapping noise within the building.  This workshop is geared towards kids which might include varying levels of sound depending on excitement or interest of group.  To reduce sensory input feel free to bring your own ear plugs or ask us if you'd like to borrow a sound filtering device.
  • Grown-ups are encouraged to stay in the space to provide additional support to their child.  This may include help with motor skills or emotional support.
