Introduction

Have any of you looked up at the night sky and wondered what is up there besides the stars?  Well, this WebQuest is going to help you answer that question.  Starting today, you are going to become an astronaut.  A group of you and your fellow astronauts have been up in space for the past few months and you are preparing to return to Earth.  Upon your return, all of you have been asked to collaborate together to write a book on outer space.  In order to do this, you all have decided to split the planets, constellations, etc. up among yourselves so that each of you became an expert on a specific planet, constellation, etc..   NASA has given you questions to answer and you must have the answers ready on your return.  You must answer these questions:  What is your planet, constellation, etc.?  What are it's characteristics and features?  Is there life on your planet?  Could there be? Why or why not?
