Can you complete a mission to build and launch astronauts to the ISS?
Carefully choose a mission objective, hand select astronauts, build a rocket, and launch to the ISS! #VirtualSTEM360

Did you know that planets that orbit around other stars are called exoplanets? Exoplanets are very hard to see directly with telescopes. So how do we look for Earth-like planets in other solar systems? Learn all about it in this video! #VirtualSTEM360

Did you know the ocean is hiding Earth's deepest trench?

At 36,070 feet deep, the Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench is famously the deepest known point in the Earth's oceans. It owes its existence to plate tectonics!

Did you know galaxies come in many different shapes and sizes?
A galaxy is a huge collection of gas, dust, and billions of stars all held together by gravity. Learn about the different shapes and become a Galactic Explorer.

Have you ever wanted to cruise around on the surface of another planet?

Well, you’re in luck! You can explore Mars here, drive the rover, and collect information about Martian rocks. #VirtualSTEM360 #Mars

Which pole is colder? North or South?

Both the Arctic (North Pole) and the Antarctic (South Pole) are cold because they don’t get any direct sunlight. However, the South Pole is a lot colder than the North Pole. #VirtualSTEM360
