Give Me the Moon Over Brooklyn
Attention all Middle Schoolers:
This monthly space and astronomy series will have you seeing the universe from the comfort of your home. Explore topics including the Earth, the Solar System, the Milky Way Galaxy and beyond, plus NASA Spacecraft and at-home activities that NASA produces. We’ll also keep you up to date with space news, new research findings with explanations, and you’ll learn how to observe the night sky from Brooklyn, with the help of free phone apps. There will be “take-away” activities to do at home after each session, utilizing existing resources on the web.
This month we're asking what makes a year:
If you can use an iPhone or iPad during the presentation, then you’re in luck! Download and install the Exoplanet app from the App Store:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/exoplanet/id327702034
You will not need any of the paid upgrades, we will be using the free version together.
If you do not have an iPhone or iPad, but you do have access to a computer or laptop (Mac or PC), you can explore with NASA’s Eyes on Exoplanets. The instructions below are only for the Exoplanet App, but NASA’s Eyes on Exoplanets does many of the things that the Exoplanet App does: https://eyes.nasa.gov/eyes-on-exoplanets.html
