Exploration

Your team is going to remotely investigate Impact Craters, and one of the other Phenomena that you have contracted to study for the Prime Scientific Society:

  • Impact Craters
  • Quakes and Cracks in the planet's surface
  • Radical Temperature Changes in the BIG OCEAN
  • Volcanoes
  • Cyclones (Tornadoes or Hurricanes)

1. You will find the materials to set up an Impact Crater Research Site in your space ship. Use the materials and instructions located there to find how these features are formed on the BLUE Planet and its major satellite, THE MOON. Do this research first. Make sure that you make at least one digital photograph of your investigation, and load it onto your work station computer. Seek help if you are not sure how to do this, as well as copy images from the Internet.

2. Select one other Phenomenon from the Website Menu to investigate after completing your Impact Crater Research. Use the resources and database to provide the answers to the questions that the Prime Scientific Society wants answered.

  • You should file a brief report by sending it to the Prime Scientific Society. 
  • Then, prepare a digital or low technology report which will be presented to the other researchers and the PSS's Representative. This means your team must download onto your "disk" one or more images to be used to answer the research questions.
  • Your digital report can be in the form of PowerPoint Slide Show, or a Webpage.
