Who Holds the Space Distance Record? | Space Science Mini Lesson for Kids

Описание: Space Travel - How far have humans really traveled in the universe? 🚀
The answer isn’t what most people think — and it involves a dramatic rescue mission, the Moon, and a spacecraft that has traveled billions of miles beyond our solar system.

This outer space video is designed for elementary grades 1- 5 teacher resources, homeschool families, and anyone curious about space science.

In this HomeSchoolHome mini-lesson we explore space facts:
• The farthest distance humans have ever traveled from Earth (Apollo 13)
• Why no human has gone beyond the Moon since 1972
• How far robotic spacecraft like Voyager 1 have traveled into interstellar space
• Why space exploration is not just about miles — it’s about time, communication, and survival

You’ll learn what Low Earth Orbit is, how far away the Moon really is, what “interstellar space” means, and why humans and robots explore space in very different ways.
