Key Features
Terrestrial Earth globe and Moon sphere on a heavy, non-slip pedestal base
Adjustable trajectory arm holding a scaled miniature rocket
Rocket slides along a fixed track and stays attached
Includes a trajectory guide and an instruction sheet
Students mark a launch point on the globe, slide the rocket away from the Earth along the arm and then bring it into a path around the Moon. The model gives a first sense of launch trajectory, transfer between the Earth and the Moon, lunar orbit insertion and the distance between the two bodies, with the pace set by the teacher. Educational Instrument can dispatch the Rocket to Moon Model STEM Lab to laboratories in Poland, Seychelles, Eswatini, Maldives and Burkina Faso.
