NASA History for Kids!

While the NASA History Division Web site is aimed primarily at a college level and above audience, other branches of NASA maintain many Web sites designed with younger children in mind. These sites may be more suitable for elementary and middle school students interested in NASA or conducting research for school projects.

NASA Kids is a Marshall Space Flight Center Web site, aimed at a slightly younger age group.

NASA Quest is an Ames Research Center Web site for young students.

The Science Mission Directorate is a site for children to play, learn and explore.

Space Place is a kid-oriented Jet Propulsion Laboratory Web site, arranged in a question and answer format.

Starchild is a Goddard Space Flight Center Web site for elementary and middle school students.

You may search the sites yourself, or use the abbreviated topical index below to find links directly to kids' pages about common NASA History topics.
