I love to visit the NASA website. I always learn something new each time I visit it! During the 2007-2008 school year, I stumbled across an exciting opportunity for students.
NASA scientists are studying rocks from Earth to help them better understand findings on Mars. People all across the world are sending in rocks from their regions. Pictures of these rocks, and what they are made of, are posted on the website. Also, students receive a certificate in the mail for sending in rocks.
