Other Images --
A Sampler of Potential Investigations

Here are a few more sample images, with suggestions for possible student investigations. Each image, or a group of images, can provide as rich a focal point for investigations as the Mississippi River Delta image.

These images and comments are merely illustrative. The best idea is for your students to explore these and other images, select some that interest them, and then launch into all three phases: "getting interested", "getting oriented" and "pursuing the investigation."

Please refer to the detailed color prints which accompany these materials.

A special thanks to Dr. Cindy Evans of the Johnson Space Center, who selected most of these images and provided essential commentary.

Note: A set of lithographs for the images referred to in this chapter will be sent separately.
