The Art of Astronomy

Science inspires art and art empowers science as students investigate the characteristics and composition of planets, stars, and deep-sky objects. Inquisitive learners will use the elements of art to connect Astronomy and Earth Science concepts.

Layered Experience: Pairs well with Earth, Moon, & Sun, Magic Tree House Space Mission, and Ventures through Our Solar System (Planetarium Shows).
