For Educators

The Artemis II mission is launching soon, and ahead of this next giant leap, we want to know: Who YOU would take with you if you could select your own crew? Use this activity to brainstorm ideas and lead meaningful discussion about what makes a good team player. Share your photos, art, videos – anything depicting your crew – with the world using the hashtag #NASAMoonCrew on social media!

You're invited to join NASA as a virtual guest for the Artemis II mission. Virtual guests will receive communications about launch schedule changes, information about launch-related activities, and access to curated STEM resources. Register to let NASA know that you’re hosting a watch party, virtually participating, or would like to receive the Artemis II STEM Learning Pathway, an add-on at the bottom of the registration page.

NASA Aeronautics and the Federal Aviation Administration are teaming up on the Dream With Us! design challenge to invite middle school and high school student teams to envision ways drones and technology can help the agricultural industry. Want to be a judge for the challenge?

When charged particles in the solar wind reach our planet, Earth’s magnetic field acts as a giant umbrella to shield us. NASA’s Magnetosphere Multiscale mission has been collecting data in this dynamic region of space since 2015. And now, the Space Umbrella project lets you help scientists examine mission data to better understand solar storms.
