9th December 2005, 12:00am
You and your pupils probably know that Venus is both the morning and the evening star - but what else? From Earth to Venus is a large (A1) bright poster that illustrates some aspects of the Venus Express mission, an investigative space journey organised collaboratively by European scientists. Using a mixture of cartoons, information boxes and interviews with young British researchers, the poster is suitable for upper key stage 2 as well as secondary students. It deals with topics such as the atmosphere of Venus and how understanding what happens there may explain processes on our own planet.
