Book excerpt: All of these people have discovered possible evidence of rocks from space that passed through the atmosphere and landed on Earth. Sometimes there is little or no evidence of the rock itself; it burned up in the atmosphere or broke up on impact. Other times the rock is all there is, with little evidence of its fiery entry or crash landing. These events all involve the mysteries of meteorites: what they are, where they come from, how they got here, how they affect people, and what they tell us about the solar system. These are some of the questions that are investigated in Exploring Meteorite Mysteries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHEN ASTRONAUTS dug into the Moon's surface during the Apollo program, they were doing more than digging up dry, dark sediment. They were time travelers. The rocks and sediment returned by Apollo contain vital clues to how Earth and the Moon formed, the nature and timing of early melting, the intensity of impact bombardment and its variation with time, and even the history of the Sun. Most of this information, crucial parts of the story of planet Earth, cannot be learned by studying rocks on Earth because our planet is so geologically active that it has erased much of the record. The clues have been lost in billions of years of mountain building, volcanism, weathering, and erosion. Colliding tectonic plates and falling rain have erased much of Earth history, especially the early years before four billion years ago. The Moon was geologically active in its heyday, producing a fascinating array of products, but its geologic engine was not vigorous and all records of early events were not lost. Its secrets are recorded in its craters, plains, and rocks. This guide reveals the secrets that lunar scientists have uncovered since the Apollo missions returned 382 kilograms (843 pounds) of rock and sediment from the lovely body that graces the night sky. The emphasis here is on geology. The samples returned by Apollo are the stars of the show. [See the "Lunar Disk" activity on Pages 39-42 and the "Apollo Landing Sites" activity on Pages 43-46.] Understanding the Moon, however, requires other geological approaches, such as geological mapping from high-quality photographs, the study of analogous features on Earth (for instance, impact craters), and experiments in laboratories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do tiny bugs get into oatmeal? What makes children look like-- or different from-- their parents? Where do rotten apples go after they fall off the tree? By presenting everyday mysteries like these, this book will motivate your students to carry out hands-on science investigations and actually care about the results. These 20 open-ended mysteries focus exclusively on biological science, including botany, human physiology, zoology, and health. The stories come with lists of science concepts to explore, grade-appropriate strategies for using them, and explanations of how the lessons align with national standards. They also relieve you of the tiring work of designing inquiry lessons from scratch. " What makes this book so special is the unique way science is integrated into the story line, using characters and situations children can easily identify with." -- Page Keeley, author of the NSTA Press series Uncovering Student Ideas in Science
