This month, EO Kids is “digging in” to Earth science. In this edition of EO Kids, Space Archaeology: Uncovering the Past, learn about how different types of sensors on satellites are used to find past civilizations. Plus, create your own remote sensing experience with a digital camera and some popsicle sticks in the DIY “Science Activity: Ancient-Civilization Sandbox.”
At EO Kids we are committed to making Earth science fun and engaging. Come explore our Earth with us.
