Students Invited to Enter NASA Essay Contest
|
Students in grades 5 through 12 are invited to participate in NASA's Spring 2014 Cassini Scientist for a Day Essay Contest. The contest asks students to choose one of three scientific observations taken by the Cassini spacecraft at Saturn and explain in a short essay (less than 500 words) why that observation will yield the best findings. This year's targets are Saturn's F Ring; Saturn's largest moon, Titan; and Saturn itself.
The contest is open to all students in the United States in grades 5 through 12. The essays will be divided into three groups for scoring: grades 5-6, 7-8 and 9-12. All submissions must be students' original work. Participants may enter as individuals or as part of a team of up to four students.
The deadline for entries is April 17, 2014.
