JPL Education Workshop This Saturday: Deep Space Network and the Physics of Sound

 

JPL EDUCATION / WORKSHOPS Deep Space Network and the Physics of Sound Date: Saturday, Feb. 28, 10 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. Target Audience: Educators for grades 2-8 (educators for all grades are welcome) Location: Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA, von Karman Auditorium Overview: Have you ever wondered how NASA "talks" to spacecraft?  In this workshop, educators will learn about the Deep Space Network -- the system of giant antennas stationed around the world that allows us to communicate with distance spacecraft -- and understand why there is no sound in space. Come enjoy "center-based" lessons that illustrate how sound moves through solids, liquids and gases. Call the Educator Resource Center at (818) 393-5917 to reserve your spot. This free workshop is offered through the NASA/JPL Educator Resource Center, which provides formal and informal educators with NASA resources and materials that support STEM learning.
