Astronomy is exciting and fun because it stretches our imagination and has us look into the beyond.
Few subjects offer us so much versatility covering many areas such as History, Physics, Geology, Geography, Art,
and much more. So we know that you will have fun exploring the planet while doing your science fair projects for school.
Look for Telescopes here...

With the Magnetometer High School Science Fair Projects kit Brandon placed in the Astronomy Solar System Division at his science fair.
He also received two special awards: a nomination to the Discovery Channel Young Scientist Challenge and an invitation to display his project at the Linda Hall Library Blue Ribbon Exhibition of Science Fair Projects. Measuring magnetic fields and experimenting with this instrument is made easy. Be sure to check it out.
Project: WorkStation
This collection of 78, rich media interactives, movies and animations cover oceanography, meteorology, geology,
astronomy, and satellite remote sensing.
The program contains science investigations and astronomy
experiments and projects that you can use
for science fair projects.
CD-ROM. Middle through High School grades.
The NASA Space Store
The universal leader in quality NASA and space theme products.
Astronaut Autographs
The Astronomy Store has Apollo astronaut autographs that come from a reputable dealer. The signatures are authenticated
Apollo Astronaut-autographed photographs. The pictures are created from the NASA archive
negatives of authentic NASA photographs with special NASA permission. Each photograph is personally hand-signed by
the photographed Apollo Astronaut
and are unconditionally guaranteed to be authentic and are obtained directly from the astronauts.
What a great Astronomy gift for Kids!
Earth-Ocean-Atmoshere-Space Explorer
Fully interactive virtual labs such as the Rock & Mineral ID Lab that allows you to choose between 16 minerals
on which to run a battery of tests, including hardness, streak, acid reaction, luster, magnetism, cleavage/fracture, color,
luminescence, and specific gravity. The software supplies all of the virtual equipment and provides a
Mineral Data Sheet printout form to see the results of your testing.
CD-ROM. For High School Students.
Smithsonian Astro Lab Projecting Planetarium
Amazing triple-function planetarium! Three different functions, including
(1) the Projection Planetarium,
which allows you to project the stars and constellations, creating a beautiful starry night even in the daytime
(2) the Light-up Solar System Model, which makes learning about the planets fun, very interesting, and easy
(3) the Light-up Earth and Moon Model, which teaches you all about the haunting phases of the earth and moon.
Best of all, the Planetarium can be changed from one model to another in mere minutes; no headache, no hassle;
just the joy of discovery!
In exclusive interviews for Astronomy For Kids, several veteran astronomy teachers said that the best telescopes for elementary and high school students are the Dobsonian Telescopes.
Caroline Bennett, a 20-year veteran teacher stated, 1) "The Dobsonian is an all-in-one unit; this means that there is no separate tripod
to set-up. Elementary through high school students can simply carry it outside, set it on the ground and start viewing.
2). Also, without the tripod the manufacturer is able to give
you more aperture for your dollar. The larger aperture gives you
more objects to view with a lot more detail."
Astronomy for Kids Scientificsonline
Scientificsonline
Scientificsonline has a wide range of telescopes including those for beginners that are reasonably priced. My suggestion is to invest in a little more advanced telescope because in the long run you save.
Free! An online course on the Northern and Southern Hemisphere.
You can earn a Free Certificate of Completion.
I will be adding more to the astronomy for kids page,
