MY NASA DATA

MY NASA DATA is an effort to make NASA Earth science data accessible to K–12 and citizen scientist communities. The data and lessons can be used with existing curriculum and enable students to practice science inquiry and math or technology skills using real measurements of Earth system variables and processes.

MY NASA DATA microsets are created using data from NASA Earth science satellite missions and provide information on the atmosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, ocean and land surface. New data types continue to be added to the collection. Data are available online along with lesson plans, teacher-friendly documentation, computer tools and an Earth science glossary. Science project starter ideas are also available.
