Apollo 11 | Space Science Research Project Template | Digital + Print

Using a research-project template to explore Apollo 11 lets students relive the first Moon landing as investigators, not spectators: they frame questions about propulsion, life-support, navigation, and the socio-political stakes of 1969, then they could collect evidence, analyze primary sources (mission logs, video, budgets), and present claims backed by data. That structure aligns neatly with NGSS inquiry practices, saves teachers planning time, and naturally integrates physics, chemistry, engineering design, and history in one high-motivation package. Because Apollo 11 pairs dramatic storytelling with concrete technical challenges, the template keeps curiosity high while ensuring every student practices authentic scientific reasoning - turning “one small step” into a giant leap for classroom learning. With this in mind, let's engage with this excellent learning and teaching resource.
