Discover how to guide your students through the Astro Pi Mission Zero challenge and run their Python code on the International Space Station!
Astro Pi Mission Zero, an ESA and national ESEROs project run in collaboration with the Raspberry Pi Foundation, gives young people the chance to write Python code to create a personalised pixel art image for the astronauts to see. You’ll use the Astro Pi’s light sensor to adjust the colours of your unique design, all with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions.
Designed for teachers, educators, and club leaders, this session introduces everything you need to participate in the “live lesson” confidently — no coding experience required! Astro Pi Mission Control will introduce you to the learning materials and demonstrate how to create an eligible program. We’ll also show you how to get setup for the activity, and share tips for facilitation.
We’ll be working from the Mission Zero project guide during the session, which can be found here: rpf.io/mzguide
