Kids will discover that the study of stars actually begins very close to home-with our own Sun! With a fun, hands-on activity, students will learn the basic concepts behind an important astronomy tool, the reflecting telescope. This program is based on the concepts outlined in the National Science Education Standards for Earth Science: Properties of Earth Materials, Objects in the Sky and Changes in Earth & Sky. 23 minutes.
