This month, EO Kids is covering a “cool” topic in Earth science. This edition of EO Kids, "Ice on Earth: By Land & By Sea," covers two types of ice on the Earth’s surface and how NASA scientists use satellites to study these frozen features from space. Plus, follow two NASA scientists on their extreme camping trip for science across an unexplored stretch of Antarctica.
At EO Kids we are committed to making Earth science fun and engaging. Come explore our Earth with us.
