Imagine walking on Mars from the comfort of your own home! With Access Mars, you can explore the surface of the Red Planet just like NASA scientists. This interactive experience lets you virtually roam around in 3D, seeing authentic images captured by the Curiosity rover. Dive into the Martian landscape, discover ancient craters, and get an up-close look at the planet's fascinating features.
In the Classroom
Have students compare the features of Mars to similar landscapes on Earth (e.g., deserts, volcanoes, canyons). Students can create a side-by-side comparison chart, highlighting key similarities and differences, and present their findings to the class. This could lead to discussions about what makes a planet habitable. Based on the landscape and conditions they observe in Access Mars, have students design an experiment they want to conduct on Mars. They should consider the planet's gravity, temperature, and atmosphere. Students can create a proposal outlining their hypothesis, the materials needed, and the steps they'd take to carry out their experiment. Using Goosechase edu, reviewed here create a scavenger hunt where students must navigate Access Mars to find specific features like craters, rock formations, or the path taken by the Curiosity rover. Provide clues or a checklist, and encourage students to document their findings with screenshots and descriptions. After exploring the Martian surface, have students work in groups to design a human habitat for astronauts. They can use information about the landscape and climate conditions to brainstorm shelter designs, life-support systems, and how they would handle the harsh environment. Students can present their designs as posters or models using Desygner, reviewed here.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
