Tim Peake: Space to Earth Challenge

We’ve been working with the UK Space Agency on educational resources connected with Tim Peake’s mission on the ISS, called #Principia. The Space to Earth Challenge (www.spacetoearthchallenge.org.uk) encourages schools to take on a physical challenge, different activities and sports, to cover the 400km from the ISS to Earth, and also has some science challenges.

Please join in the S2E challenge (for adults also!) and encourage local schools to do so, maybe even help them out using the resources on the website, or your own ideas and projects. The Sun, solar radiation and space weather all feature prominently. It’s great fun working with school children, primary and secondary. We have schools all over the UK signing up, so if you would like to help, please just let me know.
