Using a “fun-size” bag of rainbow bite-sized candies learners will place different colored candies on a diagram of the Sun-Earth system to show different space weather conditions during solar minimum and solar maximum.

In this activity, learners predict the likelihood of aurora on Earth by examining the Kp-index and using NOAA’s 30-minute aurora forecast.

In this mini-lesson activity, students use art to demonstrate their knowledge of an aurora. 

In this interactive you will create space weather forecast maps for solar minimum and solar maximum.

In this activity learners examine the difference between aurora and airglow, while learning about NASA’s ICON Mission.

Use art to demonstrate your knowledge of aurora!

Learners will explore the causes and effects of space weather and how NASA studies it.
