  2. Why do we go to space? What does the space program do for us on Earth? Astronauts go to space for many different reasons. Some examples include: • For research reasons • To collect samples • For the experience • Hoping to discover something new and interesting • Because they think that they found something new and different The space program helps us learn about space and how it is. The space program can help us understand the characteristics of space or just simply our universe, galaxy, or solar system.

  3. What is a Space spin-off? • Originally made for space • Humans thought that the inventions used for space helped astronauts, they might help us on Earth Bar Code Shoe Insoles Space Use: Used to organize space craft parts Earth use: Used to organize items, for buying Space use: Used to put an extra spring into an astronaut's step Earth use: Used to create a better shoe, that is more comfortable

  4. SPACE SPIN-OFFS

  5. Computer Technology Computer Joystick: Space Use: practiced runway and land orbit.(Apollo lunar rover) Earth Use: makes controlling computer games easier, controls vehicles for disabled people Portable Computer: Space use: made researching easy Earth use: easy to carry, convenient for using while travelling Cordless Tools: Space Use: used to drill core sample from the moon Earth Use: (wireless mouse keyboard and printer) easier to type and scroll, not a hassle to connect it to your computer and also less chance of smaller kids tripping over the cords because there be less cords

  6. Consumer/Home/Recreation 1. Cordless tools: portable self-contained power tools that were originally developed to help Apollo astronauts drill for moon samples. 2. Smoke Detector: first used in Earth orbiting space station called Skylab (launched in 1973) to help detect any toxic vapours. Now used in homes and buildings to warn people of fire. 3. Toys for Tots: in benefiting NASA wind tunnel and aerodynamic expertise used in the Shuttle Program. Hasbro improved flying distances and loop-to-loop stunts of its toy gliders.

  7. Transportation The different types of transportation used in space include: • The space shuttle: this is designed to carry astronauts and cargo from Earth orbit. The first space shuttle flight took place in 1981. • Ski Boots: these boots are also part of the astronauts’ space suit. The ski boots help the astronauts walk on zero gravity.

  8. Environment Weather satellites help us determine how weather will feel like on earth. Without weather satellites it would be very hard to determine precisely what the weather will feel like. In order to build one of theses satellites it would cost approximately $685,000,000.

  9. !!!THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION !!!AND NOW FOR THE QUIZ SHOW……......... • You are only allowed to answer once, except for the bonus question. The person who guesses closest to the number from 1 to 100 will be able to answer this question, and win the grand prize of 2 or 3 lollipops. If you really impress us then you can win 4 lollipops of your choice. • For every question you get right, you will receive a lollipop as your prize. • You get the lollipop that you get, this means that if you don’t get the lollipop that you want then you have to ask if you can trade with someone else who got a lollipop. If you don’t want a lollipop, you don’t have to have it. • No one can help out one another. This means that if we catch anyone telling anyone an answer then that person and the person answering the question will be disqualified. • The people who have not already answered a question and would like to participate have to choose a number between 1 and 100 and the person closest will be eligible to answer the bonus two part question. • GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE………

  10. Questions • In your own words, describe what a space spin-off is. • Name and describe a work-based space spin-off. • How does computer technology help astronauts in space? • Name and describe one home recreation space spin-off. • In your own words describe why we go to space. • Approximately how much does one weather satellite cost to build. • Name 2 or 3 things that you learned from the video we showed you. • If you had to invent a space spin-off, what would you propose and why? • When did the first space shuttle flight take place? *** One lollipop per question. If your answer is outstanding you will receive a maximum of two lollipops per person.

  11. BONUS QUESTION: (Two PART) PART 1: Name at least one space spin-off from each sub-topic and describe 2 of them. PART 2: If you remember, what is the surface temperature of Mars and Uranus, and if possible the diameter of Earth. *** If you are able to answer both parts you will receive four lollipops of your choice. If you are only able to Answer one question you will receive one or two lollipops, depending on your answer.
