Found a set of vintage blueprints at a flea market… instant “art” for our new #STEM & CAD classroom

This example from an urban Title I school with many multilingual learners shows how a compelling anchoring phenomenon—the amount of garbage produced—can grab students’ interest and drive them to investigate.
See it in @TheNASEM's Rise and Thrive report: nap.nationalacademies.org/re…

Made a video showing column chromatography of grape koolaid, and as part of my research discovered that koolaid used to be called “fruit smack”. Whaaaaat???

Today’s @nytimes Great Read is by me, on the grandest road trip of all time. Pause for a second, it’s ok, and appreciate the audacity of sending a car to the Moon.
Happy anniversary, Apollo 15!

In the time it takes you to read this tweet, the expansion of the universe will carry the Cartwheel galaxy another 56,000 miles away from us. 🤸 #MondayMotivation
ALT The Cartwheel Galaxy's shape is caused by a smaller galaxy passing right through a large disk galaxy and produced shock waves that swept up gas and dust — like ripples produced when a stone is dropped in a lake — and sparked regions of intense star formation (appearing blue). The outermost ring of the galaxy, which is 1.5 times the size of our Milky Way, marks the shock wave’s leading edge.

This is the most detailed model of a human cell. The image was captured by mixing X-ray, nuclear magnetic resonance and cryoelectron microscopy data.

This view from our Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter shows frost hidden in the shadows of gullies on a crater wall in the north polar region. The area shown is a little less than a mile across. Details: uahirise.org/ESP_019033_2495

#OTD 52 years ago today, #Apollo11 launched with the mission to land humans on the #Moon. Apollo 11 was the catalyst for a new generation of explorers to boldly go where no one has gone before. Looking back on this day, we also look forward to the crewed lunar missions to come.

Slight change of plans! We’re still excited to bring you Deep Field Week, but postponing for a bit. Watch this space for future updates!
This is the Hubble Deep Field. What do we see in an image like this?
Starting July 19, follow along for #DeepFieldWeek as we take a "deep" dive into these images and what they’ve taught us about our place in space.
Can’t wait til then? Start here: go.nasa.gov/3qVNAeA
