"The Remote Mars Yard (ReMY) - space technology just one click away. ReMY is an education-scoped project originating from Polish student analog Mars rovers - the winners of Mars Society's University Rover Challenge in Utah (Magma rover - 3rd at URC 2010, Magma2 rover - 1st at URC 2011 and Copernicus rover - 6th at URC 2011). The URC Mars analog rovers are full hardware simulators of real Mars rovers, capable of performing various scientific, exploration and engineering tasks in desert environments, such as Utah desert or artificial Mars terrain."

NASA education specialist Julie Clift and her new blog, "Julie's Journey: Rocket City to Russia." On May 8, 2012, Clift will leave Huntsville, Ala., for Russia and then Kazahkstan, where she'll see her friend Joe Acaba embark on a space-bound adventure. Astronaut Acaba, a former classroom teacher, will be on a Soyuz spacecraft when it launches to the International Space Station. Acaba will become a member of the Expedition 31 and 32 crews. Follow along with Julie's international adventure. We will post blog entries as she prepares for the trip and throughout her journey.

"NASA Explorer Schools invests in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, or STEM educators to inspire and engage future scientists, engineers and technicians that NASA needs to continue our journey. NES gives educators of grades 4-12 access to NASA's people, missions, research and facilities. We have assembled a comprehensive set of NASA's free classroom materials to help you teach dozens of STEM concepts. "

"The classroom activity articles described and linked to this page were developed by The Space Place staff. "

"Being in space is not at all like being on Earth. It's usually very hot or very cold. There's no air. There's very little gravity. And the radiation is terrible! Suppose you are a very smart spacecraft engineer. You have invented a new material to use for the fuel tanks on the spacecraft. But before you send your new material into the harsh environment of space, you must test it on Earth in a space-like situation. "

"Welcome to the First Flight Society, one of aviation's oldest organizations. We invite you to become a part of aviation's past, present and future by joining the Society.

"On May 5, 1961, in the Freedom 7 spacecraft, he was launched by a Redstone vehicle on a ballistic trajectory suborbital flight--a flight which carried him to an altitude of 116 statute miles and to a landing point 302 statute miles down the Atlantic Missile Range."

"On May 5, 1961, only 23 days after Yuri A. Gagarin of the Soviet Union became the first man in space, Shepard was launched at 9:34am EST aboard the spacecraft he named Freedom 7 (MR-7) powered by a Redstone booster (MR-3).19 He was launched suborbitally to an altitude of over 116 miles, 303 statute miles down range from Cape Canaveral. His 15 minute 28 second flight achieved a velocity of 5,134 miles per hour and pulled a maximum of 11G's.20 Freedom 7 splashed down in the Atlantic Ocean where the aircraft carrier Lake Champlain awaited his arrival."

"The Hindenburg was the first airliner to provide regularly scheduled service between Europe and North America. While the airship is better remembered for the fiery Hindenburg disaster of 1937 than for its many technological achievements, it was the fastest and most comfortable way to cross the Atlantic in its day."

"The United States Navy airships U.S.S. Akron (ZRS-4) and U.S.S. Macon (ZRS-5) were designed for long-range scouting in support of fleet operations. Often referred to as flying aircraft carriers, each ship carried F9C-2 Curtiss Sparrowhawk biplanes which could be launched and recovered in flight, greatly extending the range over which the Akron and Macon could scout the open ocean for enemy vessels."
