STUFF TOO INCREDIBLE to leave in the trash...

CALIE education featured a SPACE PORTAL -- a student's guide to star gazers, astronomy... for the future space-traveler generation of planet Earth.

This Artemis 2 video was the last item posted on the legacy CALIE site -- the CALIE website was deleted days after the moon mission completed with a splashdown off the coast of San Diego:

NASA's Artemis 2 crew captured these amazing views of the Earth moon and a solar eclipse during their lunar flyby on April 6, 2026.

What Does NASA Do?

NASA's mission is to pioneer the future in space exploration, scientific discovery and aeronautics research.

To do that, thousands of people have been working around the world -- and off of it -- for almost 50 years, trying to answer some basic questions:

What's out there in space?

How do we get there?

What will we find?

What can we learn there, or learn just by trying to get there, that will make life better here on Earth?

Here is some of what's left of the CALIE Kid's Clubhouse:

An American Indian Perspective on the Creation:


CINON DURO
(Hokoyel Mutaweer), Mesa Grande Ipai Kuseyaay, years ago said:

In the beginning, there was no form or shape.

The Sky-Power Father and Earth Mother, Sinyohauch, gave issue to two sons: Tuchaipa, the first born, and Yokomatis, the younger.

The brothers created man, the sun, the moon, and the stars.

First, they sent the sky up by blowing tobacco into the air....

INDIAN STAR CHARTS by Roy Cook:

How many stars are there in the sky? How many stories about the stars are there? There are many Tribal stories that explain and/or include the stars. We will look to four tribal stories: from the West, East, South and North.....
