As it`s known, any Astronomy content is found formally, however in books or websites. But what about children. They have the right to understand their planet and what lies outside it. So, it was thought of a way that could facilitate the space content to kids and also make it exciting. So our solution was derivative from the quote which says " The human species thinks in metaphors and learns through stories " A website is created which provides funny stories explain space concepts and theories. These stories are written interestingly to attract children and entertain them. Also, the webpages are designed simply and easily to be easy for surfing. Hopefully, our project could help children in learning space facts.
After reading NASA's challenges, our team tried to choose the most reliable problem which "is creating a mascot". It's known that kids` education is a big challenge in most countries as they are the future builders. They also have the right to learn for the world they live in. So, It was concluded that the best way they could understand the space data through is the stories. Then a website was created using "Wix web" to achieve it in a short time. After that stories were added simply and funnily to attract them. It was tried as possible to make these stories funny and rich in reliable information to provide them with entertainment and education. We faced many challenges. First the limited time, we made a great effort to finish the website. Also writing the Astronomy content in form of interesting stories was another challenge for us. But in my opinion, It benefits us a lot and develops our skills.
Space agencies data was highly required in this project as:
_our project depends on designing a web that includes information
about space in a simplified way in a form of a story for children
So, we needed a lot of data from the space agencies, to put in the stories, for example :
_ information about the solar system
-interesting facts about each planet
-information about the stars
- the difference between meteors and meteorites
- the importance of astronaut`s suit
- how do space phenomena occur
And after collecting this information, we made it in the form of an interesting story for children
