Earth Science and Astronomy are two very important aspects of science because they explain how our planet and our universe function as a whole and as a system! We can better understand the world around us, not just on our own planet but out in our solar system. Astronomy specifically provides important context to Earth’s unique landscape and evolution!

For this month, we will be focusing on some of the wonders of astronomy. Be prepared to get active, move around and make your own spaceship, all while learning about the planets – their names, characteristics and functions – and how they shape our solar system!
