World Space Week 2002 Report Apart from the Awards ceremony for the UNESCO essay contest hosted at the European Space and Technology Centre (Estec) of ESA in the Netherlands, at the initiative of the Human Spaceflight Directorate (see also report from South Africa), the Education Office of ESA proposed, via the Web site, a project on "Space and daily life.... in 45 years - A base on Mars". This was to recall that the first satellite was launched only 45 years ago and to propose to schools to think about how would life be in space in the same elapsed time. To ease the reflexion, we prepared a short description of the type of work we were expecting, It was made available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Portuguese. The proposed work was to include analysis of what a base on Mars would be and building the base, either with drawings or as a model. We also translated in nearly all these languages part of the World Space Week Teacher's Guide (including all practical information on the event and selected proposed activities) to help activities during the week, even of not proposed by us. The best projects we received came from Germany, France and Portugal and you can find them in the "News" section of our web site. Visit the ESA Education Web site on www.esa.int/education to know more about our activities for teachers, children and students! |
