No Planet B Resource Workbook

As part of the SPACE research project, Queens University Belfast worked in partnership with Armagh Observatory and Planetarium and Nerve centre to produce the No Planet B? book. To go along with the book, we also developed a special resource workbook! This workbook is packed with fun activities, cool facts, and creative challenges to help children learn more about Earth, space, and the important role we all play in protecting our world. It’s a great way to get young minds thinking about big ideas while having lots of fun!
