Guide Stars
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Sussex
Department Name: Sch of Mathematical & Physical Sciences
Abstract
The aim of this project is to engage members of the Guiding movement with Astronomy and Space Science, in order to inspire them into studying physics at a higher level.
Planned Impact
On completion of the Guide Stars campus event we will use feedback from the participants and work with members of the Guiding movement to further develop some of the activities to be potentially disseminated to individual groups to use. We will also make the campus activities available to other university groups for use with their own Guide Stars events.
