This CD is a comprehensive investigation of the the origin, evolution and structure of the universe, stars, galaxies, the solar system, the Earth and the Moon. The CD presents in-depth science educational material in a fun and interactive manner.
The tools and instruments used by astronomers are examined, along with fundamental science topics in physical science needed to understand astronomy concepts, including gravity, atomic theory, fusion, fission, force and motion, radioactivity, the electromagnetic spectrum and more. Hundreds of beautiful photographs of stars and planets with in-depth discussions, dozens of video clips and animations, and dozens of interactive exercises that are demonstrations, puzzles, mini-games and virtual experiments.
Approximately 225 screens with in-depth educational text and pictures, 16 interactive exercises, and 44 video/animation/slide shows of stars, planets, plus an extensive history of rocketry and satellite exploration.
