This week the Meadowlands Environment Center is holding a space camp for students entering the seventh grade.
Tuesday's session was about the sun, stars and planets, and students went outside to learn about the sun in whole new ways (see 1:45-minute video). 
MEC's Laura Venner talked to the 15 students abot the sun and SOHO, an international project involving NASA and other space agencies to study the sun.

I always wanted to look through a telescope when I was little and see the stars. I never got the chance. I hope one day even in my later years I get the opportunity to do that.
