mars... the facts
Poor Old Beagle 2 - missing in action, a long way from home…and upstaged just a teeny bit by NASA! Still, we thought a few factoids wouldn’t come amiss, all in an easy to swallow capsule form.
If you get the space bug over the holidays, and you feel like re-vamping your room with some seriously cool space posters (for FREE!) then check out the Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council (known to those in the know as PPARC) publications web page.
PPARC also have a reprint of their free quarterly magazine Frontiers Issue 16 for Mars enthusiasts (and you could sign up for the mag on the subscription card inside). Email pr.pus@pparc.ac.uk or order online from the publications page.
And PPARC have a teachers pack available (one per school unless you have a BIG need for more – the sheets are photocopyable) featuring fab worksheets, posters and a teacher guide. You can order yours by emailing pr.pus@pparc.ac.uk.
Happy Marsing one and all!
