NASA Science at Home

Jump to: What's New | Activities | Meet Our People | Other Languages

Welcome to the Science page for #NASAatHome! We want to be sure that every student, educator and lifelong learner has access to the resources and inspiration of NASA to continue their studies or enrich their ongoing journey. Below you will find access to everything from formal lesson plans to amazing imagery and stories about how science and exploration are lifting our world. There will also be ongoing opportunities to chat and interact with scientists directly. We know there’s a community of space science enthusiasts worldwide, and we want to provide a place to connect and to share the discoveries that continue to unfold.

Please share your stories with us about what you’re learning and how you’re using digital resources to continue your education during this time. Use #NASAatHome. We look forward to hearing from you, and keep checking back often as we add new content to the page.

  • Webinar for Rural Educators: Join Albert Einstein Distinguished Educator Fellows Rachael Arens and Michael Guarraia from NASA on January 7th at 7pm CT for the monthly 3-D Thursdays series for rural educators. This webinar will offer educators a virtual workshop with NASA partners from My NASA Data. Educators will gain access to free NASA resources while also learning how to incorporate student-driven project/research design into their classrooms.
  • The Geminids are widely recognized as the best annual meteor shower a stargazer can see, occurring between Dec. 4 to Dec. 17.
