Yuri Gagarin was the first man in space and space still inspires; a view of our planet from space reminds us we have only one planet that needs to be taken care of. Young people are more and more aware of this and are open to using technology in new and exciting ways. Our project uses data from space and will develop learning resources so that the next generation know this data is available and growing and evolving and can be used to better map, measure, monitor and sustainably manage our planet. 

Our project will focus on developing resources and training for teachers, enabling them to develop lessons within existing curricula that involve all of the components of this project. Those components include the principles of remote sensing, geospatial science and satellite Earth Observation (EO), the concept of global citizenship and our collective responsibility for the change required to protect and enhance our shared natural environment, particularly in the area of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Data ‘remotely sensed’ by satellites, the International Space Station (ISS) and other geoinformation will be used in order to let  the  students independently experience scientific data processing and analysis techniques in STEM subjects.
