My NASA Data has recently released several new resources, StoryMaps, for use in educational settings.
Explore and connect to the GLOBE Mosquito protocol bundle.
Meet Dr. Yoland Shea, Atmospheric Scientist at NASA Langley Research Center. Learn what inspired her as a child and how she became a NASA scientist!
In this activity, students will analyze past and future eclipse data and orbital models to determine why we don’t experience eclipses every month.
Earth is made up of five major parts or subsystems: the Atmosphere, Hydrosphere, Biosphere, Cryosphere, and Geosphere. Each major part is connected to the other parts in a complex web of processes.
Elizabeth Forsbacka is an instrument manager. She leads a diverse team to design, build and test Earth or space science instruments. She says "My job is to build a good team that can do it all. Our work from design through delivery of the spacecraft usually takes about four years." See what it's like to work on this sort of project.
In this activity, students will model the geometry of solar eclipses by plotting a few points on a piece of graph paper, and using quarters and a nickel to represent the Sun and Moon (not to scale).
This resource helps to identify and access GLOBE protocols and hands-on learning activities that complement the Changing Air Temperatures phenomenon.
Students observe the map image, individually, looking for changes in surface air temperatures (using data displayed, unit of measure, range of values, etc.) and noticeable patterns.
