나만의 행성을 만들어라: 행성학 소개

This four week course introduces students to the foundations of planetary science. We will explore how planets are formed and evolve over time, their physical properties, and interactions with other celestial bodies.  

During the course, each student will create their own fictional planet based on what they learn, covering properties such as mass, orbit, structure, atmosphere, climate, surface features, and the presence of rings and moons. They will get to present their planet to their classmates during the final meeting.  

This is a highly interactive course. Students will learn through an image and video filled presentation and discussion. Students’ participation and questions are regularly encouraged. 

This course is perfect for the young space enthusiast who wants to deepen and expand their knowledge of Space. 

Classes are designed to encourage student engagement and follow their curiosity.
