Climb aboard the International Space Station (ISS) and discover what it takes to be an astronaut! Students will explore the engineering ingenuity used to design the ISS and understand just what astronauts need to live and work in space. In our Space Stations activity, students participate in a number of hands-on activities to explore different aspects of living and working in space. Smaller groups engage in the stations together, while larger groups will be split to rotate through stations. Stations explore a range of space-related topics, such as food in space, the design of the ISS Canada Arm, how space suits work, and more. • Subjects: Engineering design, Properties on Earth and in Space• Grades Pre K – 5, with program elements tailored to grade level• For groups up to 30 students per session• Station activities (between 60 and 90 minutes)• Programs can be held at iSPACE or your location.
