Course: La Trayectoria de Orión

Mira la Luna como nunca antes la has visto y llega hasta ella en Orión la nave espacial que llevará a los futuros exploradores hacia el espacio. Las fases lunares, los eclipses, los cráteres, las mareas y el lado oscuro, todos cobran vida en esta animada lección con el astronauta de la NASA LeRoy Chiao, la anfitriona Katrina Miller y el Profesor David Klaus de la Universidad de Colorado. En los laboratorios virtuales, conduce un róver lunar sobre rocas lunares y haz tu propio oxígeno y agua usando los recursos que encuentras en el espacio. Volar a la Luna y enfrentar el reto de sobrevivir en el espacio es una fantástica experiencia de aprendizaje en La trayectoria de Orión.
