Space Place
In both English and Spanish, the Space Place includes activities and 
information related to the exploration of outer space, as well as Earth 
from space. Make Spacey Things includes a contest with entries due by May 15, 2002 for a tortilla spacecraft (open to U.S. residents only). Dr. Marc's amazing facts tie space science into their everyday lives. Toward the bottom of the page, you will find the teacher's section with 
lesson ideas.
