Students of the eight grade discovered information about the universe and personalities passioned by the sky.

1. Small and large through the
Universe

2. Enriching Curricula with STEAM
Implementations

3. The Milky Way Galaxy

4. Solar System

5. An image of the galaxy UGC 12158, believed to resemble the Milky Way,
taken by the Hubble Space Telescope.

6. Representation of the solar system in which the plane of the Earth's orbit
around the Sun can be seen in 3D. Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are
shown in both images; the one on the right represents a full revolution of the
planet Jupiter, while Saturn and Uranus make less than a full revolution.

7. The distance of bodies in the solar system from the Sun. The left and right
edges of each bar correspond to the respective body's perihelion and
aphelion. Long bars denote high orbital eccentricity.

8. Inner planets. From left to right: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars in original
colors, with dimensions to scale (except for distances between planets).

9. Image representing the asteroid belt (in white), Jupiter's Trojans (in green),
the Hilda family (in orange), and near-Earth asteroids.

colors and approximate sizes)

11. Hale-Bopp was discovered on July 23, 1995, at a great distance from the Sun, raising hopes that it
will become much brighter as it approaches the Sun and Earth. Although forecasting the
brightness of comets is a difficult art, Hale-Bopp met or exceeded predictions when it passed
perihelion on April 1, 1997. It is thus aptly named "The Great Comet of 1997."

13. A diagram of Earth’s location in the Universe in a series of eight maps that show from
left to right, starting with the Earth, moving to the Solar System, onto the Solar
Interstellar Neighborhood, onto the Milky Way, onto the Local Galactic Group, onto
the Virgo Supercluster, onto our local superclusters, and finishing at the observable
Universe.

14. Cassini-Huygens was a spacecraft/robotic space probe jointly launched by
NASA, ESA and ASI that studied the planet Saturn and its natural satellites,
being one of the most successful missions.

15. This true-color simulated view of Jupiter is composed of 4 images taken by
NASA's Cassini spacecraft on December 7, 2000. To illustrate what Jupiter would have looked like
if the cameras had a field-of-view large enough to capture the entire planet, the cylindrical map
was projected onto a globe. The resolution is about 144 kilometers (89 miles) per pixel. Jupiter's
moon Europa is casting the shadow on the planet.
