  1. Developed by the GPM Education and Public Outreach team NASA Goddard Space Flight Center GPM:Global Precipitation Measurement Mission

  2. ENGAGE

  3. EXPLORE: GPM Background

  4. EXPLORE: Label the Satellite

  5. EXPLORE: Satellite with Labels High gain data-relay antenna Star-field finder Control system Solar panel Solar panel KuPR Ku-band (13.6 GHz) KaPR Ka-band (35.5 GHz) Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR)

  6. EXPLORE: Matching Match the part of the satellite with its function. Function Word Bank: Power type of precipitation Navigation 3-D information about particles Communication The high gain data-relay antenna is for The star-field finder is for The solar panels are for The GPM Microwave Imager (GMI) tells us the The Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) gives us

  7. EXPLORE: Matching Answers Matching Answers: High gain data-relay antenna - communication Star-field finder - navigation Solar panels - power GPM Microwave Imager (GMI) – type of precipitation Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) – 3-D information about particles

  8. EXPLORE: Make an edible model Communication: High gain data-relay antenna Navigation: Star-field finder Use the food items provided to create your own edible model of GPM. Try to include all of the parts on the diagram you labeled. Control system Power Supply: Solar panels KaPR Ka-band (35.5 GHz) KuPR Ku-band (13.6 GHz) Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR)

  9. EVALUATE • Write a letter about GPM to a 4th grade student. Be sure to include: • What is GPM? • What will it be used for? • Why is it important? • What are some parts of the satellite?

  10. Video- “GPM Launch Animation”
