Exoplanet Atmosphere Digi Kit: An Interactive, Cross-Disciplinary Educational Tool for Spectral and Transit Data Analysis

To the point

This Digi Kit, Exoplanet Atmosphere, helps students learn how scientists use transit data and spectral patterns to figure out what exoplanet atmospheres are made of, using interactive models, graphs, and readings to connect physics, geometry, and astronomy, with videos, tutorials, and an exoplanet catalog, adaptable from college to high school, and it notes that thousands of planets exist but habitability is still being studied, with extra materials and credits to Nicholas Oakes and Diana Logreira.

Determining the Atmospheric Composition of Exoplanets Lesson Plan - NASA Science

In this activity, students will use spectral patterns of exoplanets atmospheres to learn about atmospheric composition, as well as what other variables scientists consider when looking for planets that might support life.
