How is Nasa in our homes?

Kia ora everyone!
For inquiry this term we are looking at building rockets, but beforehand, we've had to learn a bit about space.

One thing we've had to investigate is how Nasa is in our homes and cities. I was expecting satellites- or something cool, but I suppose what I discovered will have to do.

Aurora / Polar Lights

Kia ora everyone,

For our matariki studies we decided this week to also looked at the Aurora lights (also known as the northern, or southern lights) and created art on the two mixed. 

For many years, the aurora lights had been confusing scientists, some people thought it must've been because of a certain type of fox, running at the speed of light, and leaving a trail from its tail as it did so. Chinese historians believed that they were dragons, battling in the heavens. In reality though, they are pieces and particles from the sun, that break through the earths atmosphere, and glow in the cold night sky.

Sometimes they are very dim, and sometimes they are crazy bright, and light up the land for miles.

So- how did we incorporate matariki with the subject, and turn it into art-?
