Your
age on another planet...
An
earth day is about 24 hours long, and an
earth year is about 365 days long. Days
and years on other planets are different.
Some planets have very long days or years,
and some are very short. Type your
birthday and click on a planet. Then you
will see how old you would be if you had
been born there! Click

Planets do not stay so close like in the
picture. Otherwise we would see them
bigger than the size of moon that we see. |

INTERNATIONAL
ART COMPETITION FOR CHILDREN |
|
Children are always intrigued by space.
When they look at the sky, they wonder
what lies beyond the white clouds, they
marvel at the twinkling dots they see at
night, they imagine playing and living
"up" there.
EURISY,
Norwegian
Space Centre and UNESCO are
encouraging children to share their
thoughts on what it is to live in space
through a drawing or painting. A
drawing/painting competition will give
children from 6 to 10 years old an
opportunity to express their thoughts
about life in space while demonstrating,
at the same time, their skills in drawing
or painting.
This
competition is unique as the selection of
the best drawing/painting will be done through
the internet. Every month,
drawings/paintings received on time will
be published on the website of the
Norwegian Space Centre and ANY
WEBSITE VISITOR
can vote for the best image of the month.
An international jury will select the
winner of the year among the monthly
winners.
For
more information email us to kosmandu@yahoo.com
before July 20, 2004.
The
last contest deadline for the UNESCO
calendar for 2005 will be 20th
AUGUST 2004.
