SPACESHIP
EARTH:
Combined velocities, relative speeds, and space travelers... what do they have to do with your class? Quite
a lot, since each and everyone of us is hurtling through
space at a speed of 66,000 miles per hour. Students will
hop aboard a commercial jet, drop into the International
Space Station, and open a parachute to understand how relative speeds work. Online activities in energy and motion
and speed and velocity support student investigations.
