What types of microbes live in space and how? Check out my interview with space microbiologist Marta Cortesão where I asked her these questions.

Space is everything beyond Earth. There’s beauty, mystery, and never-ending learning about it. If you’re ready to laugh, read funny space quotes. Outer space is incredible. Earth’s solar system is one…

Let me introduce you to this far out little Earth, who is my 5 year daughter. She wanted to be the world for Halloween! She loves space and maps and

Using an Escape Room to develop curriculum knowledge is an exciting activity that will inspire learners from 3rd Grade to 6th Grade. The curriculum content of this Escape Room is linked to: Space – Earth and Beyond The aim of the Escape Room is to provide jeopardy for the children to work under pressure to solve 9 clues to save them from saving the world from destruction. Before beginning, you will need to prepare the following: · A copy of the Pupil Workbook for each group · A set of table activities for every group – prepared beforehand and given to each group after they have all completed each Code Key activity · IT sources and research materials · Initial Starting Script sharing the problem to the children · Completion Script celebrating the completion of the challenge Children do not need prior knowledge of the topic above to complete this Escape Room, as the research will support the answers and each Code Key is supported with several clues. This Escape Room is ideal as a review of learning. The activity begins by the teacher reading the Initial Message received. It clearly tells the children that they are required to save the Earth from total destruction. The only way they can save the Earth is to solve 9 Code Keys. Failure is not an option for the future of the Earth! What follows are 9 activities which the children must solve to discover the code to move onto the next activity. Each activity focuses and builds the children’s knowledge on many aspects of Space – Earth and Beyond. The 9 activities are based on the following outcomes: · Planets named in order from the sun to the furthermost point of the universe (including Pluto as a dwarf planet) · Planets in order of size · Distances between the planets · Facts about the main planets · Sound in space – Vacuums · Space Travel/Exploration · Key Space Explorers · Reviewing the 8 Code Keys and identifying what we have learnt/revised about Space – Earth and Beyond. When all 9 activities are completed, and the children have gained the correct Code Keys from each activity, the teacher can read the final communication detailing how the children have been able to save the Earth. Setting up the Escape Room 1. Children should be split into groups of no more than four and be placed in their own work space. 2. Access to IT and research materials should be provided to allow children to research answers to questions and review their own knowledge, as well as checking answers. 3. Each group should have a Code Key Booklet and decide on a team name 4. Read the Initial Message to the children to set the challenge in context. Discuss what this means, and what the activity entails. 5. Hand each group a copy of Code Key 1. Agree with the children a set time to complete the problem in – this ensures that the children stay on task and maintains the Escape Room element of working under pressure. 6. At the end of the time, children should have filled in the Code Key in their booklet. The teacher can then check the accuracy of all the groups and talk through the responses the children should have. 7. Move on through the remaining challenges until all 9 have been completed. 8. For those groups who have been successful, they are then able to read the completed statement where they find out if they have escaped the Escape Room and saved the Earth! There are other ways of running Escape Room activities, for example, each activity could be set up on 8 tables (with the 9th Challenge the groups all doing at the same time) and the children then move from table to table completing the activity. This would reduce the need for as many resources, and access to non-fiction sources and Internet Resources could then be targeted at specific Challenges. The Escape Room should last for 2 hours. We hope that your children enjoy this Escape Room. Thank you for visiting our store and viewing our products. Best wishes INSPIReducation

A day in the life

In the intricately drawn piece 'Man in Space,' we are ushered into a surreal realm that stimulates a profound exploration of humanity's connection with the universe. This artwork utilizes a monochromatic palette, employing various shades of black and white to create a stunning visual contrast that invites the viewer into a dreamlike interpretation of existence beyond Earth's atmosphere. The artist deftly navigates through the realms of reality and imagination, manifesting the poetic essence of man’s journey into the cosmos, while establishing a captivating dialogue between the figure and the celestial bodies that surround him. Central to this composition is the figure of a solitary man, depicted against an ethereal backdrop featuring the moon. The moon, often considered a symbol of mystery and enlightenment, embodies the duality of light and darkness, reflecting the inherent contradictions of the human experience. The surreal elements interwoven within the artwork evoke a sense of weightlessness and detachment, reminiscent of the vast void that envelops outer space. This visual representation beckons us to ponder the existential questions surrounding humanity's place in the universe and our intrinsic desire to explore the unknown. As we delve deeper into the context of 'Man in Space,' one can draw parallels to the influential works of renowned surrealist artists such as Salvador Dalí and René Magritte, whose explorations into the subconscious have laid the groundwork for contemporary interpretations of surrealism. The underlying thematic elements of isolation and introspection resonate with audiences, urging them to critically engage with the artwork and reflect upon their own aspirations and fears amidst the expanse of the universe. 'Man in Space' stands as a testament to the power of art to transcend boundaries, inviting us on a metaphysical journey that profoundly encompasses the human condition amidst the breathtaking infinity of space.

Incredible XL Museum Quality LEMURIAN LIGHT Phantom Quartz Crystal Point | It extends far beyond anything that can be associated with or tied to a geographical location. This pictures do not do this piece Justice, its Amazingly Stunning and is of 'Otherworldly Quality' acting as a portal for whom can interact with it, transcending time and space, perfect for any area you utilize to expand your Consciousness. Dimensions: 10.5" x 4.8" x 3.2" inches Weight 3938 grams | 8 lbs 11 oz Properties: Phantoms, Master Integration Transmitter, Rainbows, Multidimensional seers can "travel" between dimensions and this is validated by them consciously remembering visions, perceptions and interaction with the Unseen Realm of Beings. They mentally access other space/time continuum's, these people are "multidimensional," their journeys consist of far more than just imaginings. People who have multidimensional perceptions universally have a strong sense of intuitive knowing that they are seeing, feeling and experiencing something different from their every-day 3RD dimensional world. These people with multidimensional abilities see hyper-space filled with other beings, intelligence and worlds that are different from Earth - as well as seeing symbols, equations, machines, colors, and hearing sounds. These multidimensional people can channel light frequencies that contain advanced concepts and new paradigms. There seems to be a universal communication system, seen as visions, symbols, colors, numbers, or heard through unusual and not yet understood sound mechanisms. Due to the highly strangeness of hyper-space, each person’s conscious filtration system will interpret what they see in terms of their own past experiences and knowledge. Often the information is shown visually and explained in a linear fashion in order for the mind to integrate the information to be utilized on this 3RD dimension. The dimensions are teeming with a myriad of life forms that are described as balls of light to very concrete civilizations. People being on this frontier often experience great pitfalls. Because their experiences are so difficult to verbalize and are contrary to 3RD dimensional reality they are often dismissed as frauds or worse yet deemed as unstable. The translation of these experiences is one of the most difficult challenges encountered. Yet, those great multidimensional persons that have interpreted their findings, such as Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Albert Einstein and Nikola Tesla, were considered geniuses who changed the world. The implications of multidimensional experiences may truly represent a new evolutionary development of the human species, and are forerunners on the evolutionary path. These mind journeys will allow for advanced technological information to be brought into our 3RD reality. Research has shown that a multidimensional minds can actually travel into hyper-space and have conscious visualization and perceptions of other time/space dimensions, including accessing information through their own DNA. Often they speak of formulas, mathematical equations and atomic structure in ways quite different from current scientific thought. Therefore a technology is possible regarding transmission and access of this hyper-space information. This technology could restructure human focus and activity. Once properly understood, nurtured and cultivated, multidimensional abilities have much to offer humanity. The people who develop this ability will be the forerunners of a new world. Once a person begins to acknowledge they are, indeed, accessing information which exists outside known reality, the second, and perhaps largest, challenge comes in mastering their abilities. Lemurian Crystals are gentle, ancient healers and teachers waiting to share with you an awakened consciousness within them as you connect to them as a new guardian. Have you chosen them or has the crystal chosen you. They are powerful healers; clear blockages clear the chakras and will empower you through the dreaming. Lemurians are amazing for channeling. Since they were left here and seeded by our ancient brothers and sisters, they hold the ink to the stars and beyond, now, from the past and in the future. || Phantoms || Phantoms look like the “ghost” of a crystal within another crystal. Phantoms are formed when the growth of a crystal has been interrupted and then begins to grow again. Your Phantom is this: at some point several million years ago the crystal grew to a certain height and shape and then its nutritional source was shut off. Then at some later time, new solution flowed in and the crystal began to grow again, but totally within the boundaries of its original framework, rather than taking new forms or directions. In other words, the crystal grew beyond its original plan or expectations due to new incoming nutrients that provided the opportunity for continued growth and expansion within its original form. Focusing on a Phantom Crystal can remind you that you are always well protected during these times of new growth. Just be patient and trust that your own additional nutrition will show up right on schedule exactly when you need it, in the quantities you need it or can assimilate.
