Get Involved with Jupiter Quest

For Educators and Students

 
Imagine the excitement in your classroom as students explore the largest planet in our Solar System, contributing to real scientific discoveries and developing a deeper appreciation for space science.
 
Jupiter Quest offers students and educators the opportunity to engage in real scientific research. Participants learn how to collect and analyze data on radio emissions from Jupiter, making abstract scientific concepts tangible and exciting.
  • Educational Modules: We provide comprehensive training materials and lesson plans to help educators integrate Jupiter Quest into their curriculum.
  • Live Operation: Students participate in live sessions, operating the DSS-13 telescope remotely and analyzing real-time data.
  • Project-Based Learning: Students undertake projects based on their observations, fostering critical thinking and scientific reasoning.
 
 

For Citizen Scientists

 
Imagine being part of a network of citizen scientists, each making valuable contributions to our understanding of the solar system. Your participation can help improve scientific research and provide new insights into the universe.
 
Citizen scientists play a crucial role in Jupiter Quest. By participating, you will help collect and analyze data on Jupiter, contributing to ongoing research efforts. This initiative is a unique chance to work alongside professional scientists and make meaningful contributions to our understanding of the universe.
  • Training and Resources: Access detailed guides on how to conduct observations and analyze data.
  • Collaborative Research: Join the scientific community, share your findings, and contribute to research projects.
  • Contribute to Science: Your observations and analyses will be used in real scientific studies, advancing our knowledge of Jupiter and its many mysteries.
