Lockheed Martin, an American space system company(空间系统公司) in Maryland, has found a really cool way to inspire the young kids of today to the research fields in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM).
It may look like a common yellow bus, but all the magic happens once you get inside. "Mars Experience Bus" is part of Lockheed Martin's new "Generation Beyond" national education programme. It gives kids a chance to join in and study what goes on outside of our home planet. The bus offers a virtual reality(VR, 虚拟现实)experience making the teenagers feel like they are driving on Mars.
The VR experience was developed by using software(软件) created for today's best video games, so you can imagine the picture shown is top level. The kids do seem really excited to see the bus take a virtual trip on the red planet and search unknown places. It's certainly a great way of learning about the universe(宇宙) by virtual reality working on a common bus.
The Lockheed Martin's bus will start a tour in the United States to allow kids from different parts of the country to take a ride in it. The "Generation Beyond" project also includes an app on the phone for providing real-time information about weather reports for Mars, and there's also a free deep space class for middle school teachers and students.

That's really an important lesson!
I am worried about my teeth. My front teeth are so big that they almost look like buckteeth (龅牙). When I take photos, I never laugh. I am also afraid my classmates will laugh at me. If I had smaller teeth like other people, I would be very happy. (Mari, Lima, Peru) |
I want to change my pessimistic attitude (悲观的态度) to life. Sometimes, things are not that bad, but I take everything too seriously. Once, I thought I didn't do well in an exam. I became very sad. But when I saw the result, it was not as bad as I thought. I worried about it too much. I think I shouldn't be so pessimistic. (Troy, London, UK) |
I want to change my bad temper (脾气). I often get angry and hurt the people I love. Every time my mother cares about me, I think she talks too much. Sometimes, I even argue with her. But I know ____. I shouldn't do that. I will try to change my temper. (Jake,Ottawa, Canada) |
I often dream about having long legs. They would make me look more beautiful, and help me run faster. I like running and always join the running races at school. But other runners always pass me during the big race. I try my best, but it doesn't work because of my short legs. So I want to have longer legs. (Nancy, Sydney , Australia) |
