LEGO Education and NASA
It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, No it’s a Satellite! Rocketing Into Space with LEGO Education and NASA!
“It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, No it’s a Satellite! Rocketing Into Space with LEGO Education and NASA! Crew on board the International Space Station (ISS) will share with students what satellites can be used for. Crew will also explain how these communication devices are launched and carried into space. Students will then be asked to think of other ways to use information gathered from satellites and design their own custom satellite. Topics covered include developing an awareness of outer space, exploring communication devices and understanding data collection. Check out the video with lesson plans here.”
Mike Suffredini Objects to Legos in Space, earlier post
“Suff asked if the folks at HQ had considered the negative aspects of showcasing Legos in that it may seem we are not utilizing 1SS resources to their fullest capacity.”

Reminds me of the fun I had with my logos growing up as an 80’s child. I made a space shuttle and real cool moon bases.
I think this is great. I hope it gets wide exposure. I wonder if Lego would be willing to run special, simplified classes for Congress people.

Great idea…What a doof.
Just “Lego” not “legos”.
(Saying “playing with legos” is like saying “farming sheeps”. It was cute when you were a toddler, it’s not now.)
