Paper: Space Update: A Fun Way to Teach Space Science

Abstract: In just a few short years the internet has gone from having too few sites of interest in science to too many – in both cases it can be difficult to find the information or activity that is needed to learn (or teach) a specific concept. Museum exhibits have gone from “mausoleums” of dusty science artifacts to vibrant, interactive, hands-on, real-time safe sources of up-to-date information and images. Space Update, developed with NASA DLT and OSS resources, can provide just the starting point for many a lifetime of exploration, and many activities and games along the way to make the journey fun.
