Free DVD Journey to the Stars

by admin on June 8, 2010

This would be for Teachers or Parents:

Kids love to make things explode in science class.

How about an entire star?

Thanks to NASA, supernovas will soon be going off in classrooms around the country—no safety glasses required. It’s done via a DVD called Journey to the Stars. Teachers can request a free copy along with supporting lesson plans and activity sheets at Journeytothestars.org

“We want every classroom in the country to have a copy,” says Lika Guhathakurta of NASA’s Heliophysics Division in Washington DC. “Kids of all ages from K through 12 will enjoy the show—and never look at the night sky the same way again.”

Educators and parents: Are you ready to take a Journey to the Stars? The American Museum of Natural History and NASA have joined forces to produce a planetarium show about the amazing variety of stars that dot our cosmos–exploding stars, giant stars, dwarf stars, neutron stars, even our own star! But you don’t have to go to a planetarium to experience this mind-blowing journey. NASA will send you a DVD, for free!

Just fill out the form below. Tell us how many DVDs you would like. We have plenty of them. In fact, you can request a DVD for each and every one of your students to take home for family viewing. Also, please request a set of classroom activity sheets. They meet national standards for Science and Technology instruction in grades 3 through 12
