How It Works . . .

• Students are given a video prompt to find a lost
  space probe.
• Next, clues give students information to track
  down the probe on one of the nine planets.
• Students must find the probe while staying within
  the allotted budget for the mission.

How It Rates

• Overall, The Great Solar System Rescue is a
  great hands-on tool for classrooms studying the
  solar system. Even though it was created in 1992,
  the software is relevant to todays science
  curriculum. Students are actively involved in
  learning facts about the planets and the Solar
  System.
