The Educators and Developers section has many of the same topics and sites found in the For Everyone section, plus teaching tools and detailed lesson plans with a comprehensive listing of the site’s interactivities, graphic organizers, science content reading selections, and more.

The Hubble Deep Field Academy enables students to experience counting, describing, and identifying objects in space as well as considering cosmic distances. The Star Witness News brings the latest discoveries to light, and how learning is continuous as our knowledge of the universe grows and changes. Servicing Mission 4 gives students an idea of what’s involved in maintaining and upgrading Hubble. There’s a section on black holes, including our misconceptions about them. Good for critical thinking and scientific method, one can ask what happens when we make assumptions rather than hypotheses without further investigation, and how new information can change what had been accepted science. Tonight’s Sky uses spatial skills and is an excellent introduction to astronomy, giving students a connection that can be renewed every time one looks at the night sky.
