• Space Station Close Encounters With Space Junk: Project Based Learning Activity that Involves an Inquiry Approach
  The space station's near misses with debris are a continual issue, which provides excellent resources for scientific project and problem based learning in science. Debris in space is a constant problem for the international space station (ISS). Even with constant monitoring by mission control, there are invariable near misses with the space station. For example, the current near miss situation is with a three year-old piece of an Arian Rocket 5 rocket, an old European rocket, which will come with seven miles of the space station. The current near miss of space junk is of even more concern, because the space shuttle and ISS must track and avoid any impact to ensure safety of all astronauts and both spacecraft. If the space station and shuttle are forced to m
