Nimble Navigation
Note
This activity was originally created for the #TrainLikeanAstronaut Challenges as a part of ESA Education’s Expedition: Home initiative.
To complete this activity, start off by drawing or painting handprints and footprints on cards (or print some from the internet). We recommend 9 times each type of cards, to have 36 cards with 12 rows of 3. Print out or draw the ISS picture. Tape 3 cards in a row to the floor, mixing and matching the handprint and footprint cards, with the ISS at the end of the course. Have a stopwatch or cell phone ready to record how fast you complete the course.
- Drawing or painting utensils
- Blank cards or paper
- Printed image (e.g. of the ISS)
- Tape
- Stop watch
