S.T.E.A.M. programs with hands-on activities make learning about space fun. Our online programs, sponsored by NASA SPARX, are open to students grade 5-12 (kids 13 and younger must be accompanied by a parent).
Did you know that the 5th largest planet in our solar system, the Earth, has a circumference of 24,901 miles and is not a perfect sphere? Earth, our 4.54-billion-year-old home is also the only world in our solar system with liquid water on the surface. Oceans make up almost 71% of the Earth’s surface which supports a vast array of life forms. The more we learn about the universe the more we learn how special our planet is and how important it is to take care of it. Check out our UPBEAT Program to support the quality of life of our planet.
Did you know that astronauts live and work on the moon? Learn about the Artemis mission to return to the Moon and create a model of a lunar base camp.
NASA has competitions related to the agency’s integrated space transportation systems as well as educational challenges regarding and platforms including the Orion capsule, the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and the Gateway orbiting lunar outpost.
Do you know what are the elements that NASA uses in their current model of the solar system? Find a visitor’s guide to our solar system and learn about the sun, moon, and stars.
The Solar System and Beyond strand will include challenges and competitions related to our journey to Mars and beyond and may include educational modules focused on the Perseverance rover, Ingenuity robotic helicopter and the James Webb Space Telescope.
NASA has four mission-focus areas that include: Aeronaut-X, Earth, Moon and Solar System and Beyond. Watch the official stream of NASA TV to learn about the latest NASA news updates featuring astronauts.
Welcome to the Earth, Moon, and Stars program. In collaboration with NASA’s SPARX (Sparking Participation And Real-world experiences in STEM) Challenges and Competitions, Art Sphere implements these classes to broaden students’ awareness about the study of space and to encourage their participation in STEM opportunities.
In this module, you’ll learn about the forces of flight, Newton’s Laws, layers of the atmosphere and more. You’ll get to design and apply principles of flight through Aeronaut-X content.
The Aeronaut-X strand will include challenges and competitions related to the science of flight and may utilize educational modules on NASA’s X-Plane, the science of sound and the sonic boom, urban air mobility and unmanned aircraft systems.
In this strand, you will learn about the climate change, including key terms, definition and content. You’ll get to contribute data as a citizen scientist related to local environment/climate.
The Earth strand will include challenges and competitions connecting students to their home planet Earth, with a focus on STEM concepts for everything in and below low-Earth orbit including the International Space Station.
In this strand, you’ll learn about the Artermis program and living/working on the Moon. You’ll get to design, create, and showcase a model of a lunar base camp.
The Moon strand will include challenges and competitions related to NASA’s Artemis mission to return to the Moon as well as challenges regarding the agency’s integrated space transportation systems and platforms including the Orion capsule, the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and the Gateway orbiting lunar outpost.
In this strand, you will learn about the sun, moon, and stars. You’ll find out what are the elements NASA uses in their current model of the solar system as well as. Additionally, you’ll find a visitors guide to our solar system.
