| Description | Students learn about the three different types of muscles and how outer space affects astronauts' muscles. Through the design of their own microgravity exercise machine, students learn about the exercise machines that engineers design specifically for astronaut use. This activity helps students learn about the three different types of muscles and how outer space affects astronauts' muscles. They will discover how important it is for astronauts to get adequate exercise both on Earth and in outer space. Also, through the design of their own microgravity exercise machine, students learn about the exercise machines that engineers design specifically for astronaut use. |
