If you have a passion for the mysteries of space, are fascinated by the technology that takes us there, or just mesmerised by the night sky there is something around the subject of space for you. The universe is full of wonders waiting to be explored, so why not dive into something that excites you and uncover how it all works in the vast expanse of space? You can try some examples listed below or come up with your own activities or challenges with a Leader or trusted adult. You should choose activities that will be somewhat challenging for you to complete and take a reasonable amount of time. The Scouts and UK Space Agency Partnership Complete three activities exploring the theme of Space. 1) Discover - Explore first-hand accounts from people who have been involved in the space industry or witnessed its impact. You could speak with someone working in the field or try and talk to someone who watched the moon landing on television. 2) Experience - Grow a plant without using soil. Find out how things are grown in space and why we might need to. 3) Mobilise - Find out about light pollution and how this can affect our exploration of space. Find out about a campaign near you and do something to help them. 4) Solve - Thinking about satellites and space rovers. Practice controlling something from a distance and learn why this is useful. 5) Create - Using a medium of your choice showcase something about space that interests you. You may want to take photos, record a video, compose music or complete a piece of artwork.
