Sounds of the Universe

Discover what sounds can tell us about our world! Humans hear different sounds every day, but sounds are not limited to what we can hear-or even to planet Earth. Animals make and use sounds differently from humans, and faraway objects in outer space can produce sounds. Created in collaboration with the Smithsonian Institution, this STEAM book will inspire curiosity about the properties of sound through real-world examples. It features a hands-on STEAM challenge that is ideal for makerspaces and takes students step-by-step through the engineering design process. Make STEAM career connections with career advice from actual Smithsonian employees working in physical science fields. Explore advanced science topics with older readers with this STEAM book that is perfect for secondary students or ages 10-14.
