Welcome to SPOT
The Space Public Outreach Team (SPOT) provides FREE presentations about
current NASA missions to Montana schools, youth programs, and community
groups. Offices at Montana State University in Bozeman and the University
of Montana in Missoula send presenters to schools and communities across the
state.
This year there are two SPOT shows available: Listening to the Universe
details Gravitational Wave Astronomy and Eye on the Big Sky teaches students
about stargazing in Montana. 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.
