In this cosmic bar graph worksheet, students solve 2 problems using given bar graphs that plot the number of galaxies vs. the galaxy type and the number of gamma-ray bursts vs. the burst classification. Students find the fraction of...

Students describe how cosmic rays achieve high kinetic energy via conservation of momentum.

Learners compare rates to altitude. They conduct a class discussion about the results.

In this parity bits worksheet, students read about pixels and data strings. Students are given 2 data strings that are corrupted by cosmic ray glitches and they identify the bad data and create a valid data string.

High schoolers access prior knowledge of infrared rays, ultraviolet rays, gamma rays, x-rays and cosmic waves. In this electromagnetic waves lesson, students hold a mock trial electromagnetic spectrum. High schoolers present...

Students after completing this lesson, identify variables that affect the system, and specify which variables are independent; which are dependent. They represent data in a data table and a graph and analyze data and make predictions.

Young scholars identify variables that affect the system, and specify which variables are independent and which are dependent.

Eighth graders construct various machines and compare the work done by them.

Students explore speed by calculating the average speed of several snowmobiles, and predicting which of them is the fastest. They watch a race to verify their calculations.

Students determine if the particles are coming from above, below, or from one side or the other by using a circular array of scintillators

Students identify variables that affect the system, and specify which variables are independent and which are dependent.

In this Earth's magnetic poles worksheet, students read about the changes observed in Earth's magnetic field and the possible geomagnetic reversal of the north and south magnetic poles. Students answer 5 questions about the reading and...

Students investigate the cycles of solar activity. They plot the solar activity and use the graph to answer a number of questions and explain the relationship between the solar storms and sunspots and the impact on earth and space travel.

Seven pages all about Carbon 14 Dating. Information on half-life, Carbon 14 used to date specimens and artifacts, limitations, charts and graphs. Michael E. Brown Ph.D. contests that the limitations of Carbon 14 dating support the theory...
