NASA Langley's GLOBE Team Celebrated Earth Day by observing clouds with the 4th and 5th grade students at Samuel P. Langley Elementary School on April 22nd. Each of the 165 students were provided with their own cloud charts, observation forms and sky viewers, which they used while rotating through a series of stations guiding them through the process of making a cloud observation. Their observations were submitted and the corresponding satellite matches will be shared with the teachers. Students, teachers and the team enjoyed a morning full of cloudy skies and science process skills in action.  >>
