Module 10: Astronomical Organizations and Space Exploration

In this module, you learned about several organizations that are involved in the search for more knowledge about the universe and its possible inhabitants. Many of the organizations were started in local communities, at small universities, and/or by individuals with a thirst for more knowledge about astronomy. For this assignment, you will need to locate and contact a space-related or science-related community organization with which you can volunteer. You can choose an organization that has an impact on a national, state, local, or even school-wide level.

There are a variety of ways that you can help a community organization. As part of the assignment, you will volunteer some of your own time at your chosen organization and complete the Science Community Organization Volunteer Form. Make sure to print a copy of the Volunteer Form prior to working at your chosen organization because you will need a signature from a supervisor to verify your volunteer activities.

Once you have completed your experience, please submit your Volunteer Form to the dropbox.

Once you have completed this module, please complete the module test.
