  • Mammals
    Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D. / Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D. M.Ed.
    A mammal is an animal that breathes air, feeds milk to its babies, and has fur for at least part of its life. Most mammals give birth to live babies. Only a few lay eggs. Some mammals, like cows and goats, are herbivores and eat only grass and other plants. Others, like cats, are carnivores and eat only meat. Some mammals, like whales, live only in the ocean, and others, like s...

  • Exploding Stars
    Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D. / Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D. M.Ed.
    A star is an object in space made of hydrogen and helium atoms. It makes its own light energy and heat energy when hydrogen atoms combine to make helium. (Atoms are described.) Stars are born inside a huge cloud of gas and dust and die when they run out of the hydrogen they use for fuel. A big star that runs out of fuel ends its life in a huge, very bright explosion called a su...

  • Galaxies
    Ph.D. Rebecca Woodbury / Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D. M.Ed.
    A galaxy is a huge group of stars, planets, gas, dust, comets, asteroids, and other objects in space. Our Sun and Earth are part of the Milky Way Galaxy, which is so huge that we cannot travel outside it to see what it looks like. But by studying other galaxies and how stars are arranged in the Milky Way, astronomers can develop an idea of what it looks like. To do this, astron...

  • Black Holes
    Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D.
    A black hole is an object in space that cannot be seen because it sucks in everything near it, including light. It looks like a totally black area in space because no light escapes from it or bounces off it. Astronomers learn about black holes by observing the materials swirling around them and what happens to these materials. A black hole has a huge amount of gravity that pull...

    Bats are a type of mammal and the only mammal that flies. Mammals are animals that breathe air, feed milk to their babies, and have fur for at least part of their life. Most give birth to live babies. During the day, bats sleep upside down in protected places. At night some bats fly around catching bugs to eat. Other bats eat fruit, plant parts, and nectar from flowers. Baby ba...

    The Sun is a star that gives Earth heat and light. There are even more stars than those we can see in the sky. Stars are objects in space that are made of hydrogen and helium gas that make heat and light energy when hydrogen atoms combine to make helium. (Atoms and matter are defined.) Stars are different sizes, both smaller and larger than the Sun. Proxima Centauri, Alpha Cent...

  • The Sun
    Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D.
    The Sun is a star, an object in space that makes its own light and heat energy. Energy gives something the ability to do work. Light energy does the work of making things visible, and heat energy does the work of making things warm. The Sun is so huge that a million Earths would fit inside, and instead of being made of rocks and soil like Earth, the Sun is made of helium gas an...

  • What Is Astronomy?
    Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D.
    Astronomy is the study of stars and other objects in space. Ancient peoples studied the sky and the movement of stars, the Moon, and the Sun and were able to create calendars based on their observations. These early astronomers also named individual stars and groups of stars. Since astronomers can’t travel to stars and other distant objects, they use tools to study these object...

  • Earth in Space
    Rebecca Mar Woodbury Ph.D.
    Earth is a planet because it is an object in space big enough to have its own gravity, is spherical, and moves around a sun. Earth moves in an almost circular orbit around the Sun. It also rotates around an axis, an imaginary line that goes through its center. Earth’s rotation around its axis causes day and night, with one day being one full rotation of Earth. Earth’s axis is t...

    The Moon is spherical and much smaller than Earth. It is made of rocks and minerals, like Earth. Although it has very little air and no liquid water, it does have some ice. The Moon doesn’t make its own light but rather reflects light from the Sun. The Moon orbits Earth, completing one orbit about every month, and it looks different from day to day as it moves in its orbit arou...

    Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D.
    Astronomers use various types of telescopes to study faraway objects in space. Telescopes are tools that make distant objects look bigger, and space telescopes are in orbit high above Earth. The Hubble Space Telescope has taken over a million photos of objects in space, and some of these are nebulae. A nebula is a huge cloud of gas and dust that swirls to make beautiful cosmic ...

  • The Geosphere
    Rebecca Woodbury Ph.D.
    Earth’s geosphere is made up of layers: the crust, mantle, and core. The crust is the solid outer layer of Earth and beneath the crust is the mantle, which is solid on top and soft below. The core is at the very center of Earth and made of metals, soft on the outside and solid at the center. Big and small events change the geosphere. Magma from volcanoes creates mountains and o...
