Earth 🌏 Space Science Part 1
The Earth
Map Projections
Welcome to Earth and Space Science!
Get ready to explore the incredible planet we live on and the vast universe beyond it. In this course, we’ll investigate how Earth works—from its layers and landforms to weather, oceans, and natural disasters. But we won’t stop there! We’ll also travel beyond Earth to study the Moon, the Sun, our solar system, stars, galaxies, and even the origins of the universe.
You’ll learn how Earth’s systems—like the geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere—interact with each other and with space. We’ll ask big questions: How did Earth form? What causes earthquakes? Why do we have seasons? Are we alone in the universe?
Through labs, projects, and hands-on activities, you’ll practice thinking like a scientist and gain a better understanding of your place in the cosmos.
Let’s discover how Earth and space connect—and why it matters to us all.
