Learn at home:  simple space experiments you can do at home

Students explore the exciting research on the International Space Station. With Germs in Space, learners explore what bacteria and other small life lives around them every day, and they can compare what they find with what astronauts have found living among them on the International Space Station! The kit comes with everything you need to implement your experiment; an exploration guidebook with instructions, scientific information, and activities; as well as access to an online portal to compare the results on the ground with the results in space.
