Europa Clipper - How would you augment Message in a Bottle?

Posted on June 14, 2023 by in Science This post is public.

What Apple digital integration activities might be engaging for the launch of the Europa Clipper in October?

Learners can add their names to the Message in a Bottle that is being sent along with a poem by the poet laureate Ada Limón

Join the mission and have your name engraved on NASA’s Europa Clipper spacecraft as it travels 1.8 billion miles to explore Europa, an ocean world that may support life. Sign your name today to the Message in a Bottle.

I was thinking perhaps they might create their own poem for the mission and create a song in GarageBand. I’d love to hear some other ideas from elementary through high school.

I heard about the Message in a Bottle project with the launch of the Europa Clipper in an NPR story recently -- so neat! It might also be interesting to have students visualize the poem by drawing and animating their own original illustrations of Ada Limón's poem using Keynote.

Lots of creative possibilities!

Visualizing the poem is a great idea Jessica! Lots of possibilities of doing this with Keynote backgrounds and shapes, adding pencil or finger for drawing and animating with Create Paths or Magic Move transitions. Love it! Thanks for the idea!

Did you add your name to the bottle? 😊

Looks like Nasa is doing this name sending with every new mission. It's such a fun idea to have ones names sent across space. I just wonder what I'll be able to do with all these frequent flyers miles I got at every mission!

Thanks for sharing.
