NASA’s Digital Learning Network Presents “Roving on Mars With Curiosity”

Join NASA’s Digital Learning Network, or DLN, on Sept. 6, 2012, at 1:30 p.m. EDT for a special event to launch the newly updated “Next Step Mars” module. Help your students get a closer look at Mars by studying alongside the Curiosity rover. See how Curiosity made its way to the Red Planet, and engage in the data that comes from approximately 78 million kilometers (48,360,000 miles) away.

This webcast launch is part of the Rockets to Racecars activities taking place at Richmond International Raceway. After this kick-off event, the module will be available online for teacher use.
