Kids review "Telescopes From the Ground Up"

See what students and their teachers have to say about "Telescopes From the Ground Up" — a richly illustrated, user-friendly history of telescopes, from Galileo to the Great Observatories.

This new Amazing Space activity, found in "Online Explorations," examines the evolution, the people, and the technology behind ground-based to space-based telescopes — the tools that have helped humankind reach to the stars.

The activity includes online interactives that illustrate science concepts, clickable glossary terms, and links to astronomer biographies.
