Description:
Discover how space is part of our daily lives with Everyday STEM Science — Space, filled with facts, stories and experiments to try at home! Everyone knows there's planets and stars and space rocks far away from Earth, but how do these, and everything else in space, impact us? From the beginning of the universe and the origins of the planets, to the latest research and space missions, journey through space and uncover what is really out there . . . Discover how we're made of stars, find out how old you would be if you lived on Mars and how time travel can happen in space. Plus, meet the astronomers and scientists whose discoveries give us this fascinating space knowledge and how there's still so much more to know. Readers can also carry out astronomical experiments at home. With easy-to-understand text written by Izzie Clarke, fun callouts and lots of colourful artworks, photos, and diagrams, readers can best explore where we encounter space and why it’s even important at all. The Everyday STEM series makes STEM relevant to tweens. Instead of telling kids STEM is important and is the key to their "future success," these books, including Everyday STEM Science – Physics, show readers how we use science, technology, engineering and mathematics in our everyday lives. While the topics sound high-level and complex, this series makes these concepts age-appropriate and accessible. So, while we can’t promise to teach 9 to 11-year-olds quantum physics, we can explain in the simplest terms the practical applications of STEM.
