This lesson develops learners’ understanding of how astronomy affects everyday life and how scientific knowledge is tested, funded and communicated. Learners move from familiar examples of space-derived technology to structured discussion of scientific, economic, social, ethical and environmental decision-making. They then examine peer review, source reliability and the ways scientific information is adapted for different audiences. The lesson is discussion-rich and evidence-led, with frequent opportunities for paired talk, classification, comparison and reasoned judgement rather than extended mathematical work.
