Inga's Case: Killer Asteroids
In this case study, students will analyze video and print resources to explore the characteristics and potential effects of near-space objects in our solar system on the Earth, use an online simulation to investigate the potential effects of an asteroid impact on Earth, and complete structured research to advocate a plan for how the world should deal with the threat of asteroids to the Earth in a mock United Nations Security Council debate.
