Story Time From Space

Story Time From Space Imagine astronauts reading stories from space to school children & families in an exciting new progra

Story Time From Space, with support from CASIS, will send children’s books & demonstrations to the International Space Station. While in space, astronauts will videotape themselves reading books to the children of Earth. The videos will be edited and placed in the Story Time From Space library. The library will be housed here on the Story Time From Space website. Astronauts on the ISS will also co

nduct and videotape educational demonstrations to complement the science concepts in the Story Time From Space books. To make Story Time from Space even more useful to educators, we will create cross-content curriculum to support the Next Generation Science Standards. All of these materials, along with the videos from orbit, will be posted on the Story Time From Space website, providing easy access for educators, families, libraries, science centers, scouts and others.

Thank you! It takes a village as they say. :)

Did you know that Space Station Explorers partners with more than 40 organizations to help leverage the International Space Station for educational purposes? Did you also know that you can have an astronaut read your students a story from space? Story Time From Space is a phenomenal program and we are proud to partner with to promote literacy and a love of reading in every child. Congratulations for being our Partner of the Month!

This is a picture that a young woman who is going to school to be an astrophysicist took (look on a big screen to see the amazing detail). She was at the same location (Dallas Arboretum) as the Story Time From Space crew of myself, Jeff Bennett, and Alvin Drew. The eclipse was perfection! You could see the movement all around the edges, waves quickly moving across the concrete under our feet (I still need a good explanation of this), purple horizon, change of temperature, birds being confused, and crowds cheering! Yes - people cheering for science!!!! Epic!

New readings coming soon!
We have, not one, but THREE awesome new videos on the way! Steve Bowen, who recently returned from the Space Station, read "Totality!" by Jeffery Bennett in preparation for the October 14, 2023 annular eclipse and the April 8, 2024 total eclipse. "Totality!" features a unique combination of rhyme and science that makes it suitable for a wide range of ages. Steve did a reading with a "Kinesthetic Astronomy" demonstration for little kids and then did a deep-dive science reading for our older kids. Plus, we have an eclipsed based Science Time From Space demonstration from the ISS! Can you tell we are excited!? Will you and your students be watching the eclipse? Tell us about the exciting things your planning for the big event!
