Welcome to SPOT

The Space Public Outreach Team (SPOT) provides FREE presentations about current NASA missions to Montana schools, youth programs, and community groups. The office at Montana State University in Bozeman sends presenters to schools and communities across the state.

This year there are two SPOT shows available: Roadside Geology of the Solar System compares planetary geology to geology here on Earth and The Sun-Earth Connection teaches students about the Sun and how it effects our planet. More information about each show is available on our Presentations page.

The interactive SPOT presentations utilize slides, videos, animations and an inquisitive approach to relay the excitement of new discoveries in space science. NASA research and careers here in Montana are highlighted in each show. Presentations can be done in a classroom or assembly setting, as long as a screen or blank wall and an electrical outlet are available. Each show lasts approximately 45 minutes.

Participating teachers will receive lesson plans, activities, brochures and other materials they can use in their classrooms.
