Introducing an innovative new product that teaches students how to explore space via a network of online telescopes. Slooh makes offering astronomy engaging and affordable for schools without the requisite equipment or expertise on staff. We provide direct access to astronomy educators and real-time viewing and control of robotic telescopes, including seven telescopes situated at one of the world’s top observatory sites. With the dawn of the new space age, astronomy deserves more focus in schools, particularly because it is fascinating and inspiring to students. Slooh is designed to empower students in class as a part of the curriculum, and also in a co-curricular or extracurricular manner so students can explore space on their own with direct support from our astronomy educators. We are launching this new version for 4th through 8th-grade students in the fall, with funding support from the National Science Foundation. If you are a teacher or school administrator, please reach out with a convenient time for me to give you a call to tell you more about it.
