Space Zoo Patrol About Us
Purpose
For millions of years, people have looked up at the night sky and saw a vast unknown. Some were frightened but many dreamed of flying into the darkness of space to explore. These dreams turned into books such as “From the Earth to the Moon” by Jules Verne (1865) and “The First Men in the Moon” by H. G. Wells (1901), into TV shows such as “Star Trek”, and into movies such as “2001” and “Star Wars.”
These books, shows, and movies inspired a generation of scientists to figure out how to turn dreams into reality. A few years ago, NASA astronauts walked on the moon! And today, civilian crews are visiting space!
The goal of the Space Zoo Patrol is to spark the next generation of young students’ imaginations and their enthusiasm for science and space exploration.
