University of Michigan.

Description: Another great resource from the University of Michigan's Windows to the Universe Web site is the new Space Science activity. This interactive space trivia game tests your knowledge of space trivia with the goal to boost your rocket ship out of the atmosphere with correct answers. As with other Windows to the Universe resources, users get to choose the difficulty level they'd like to play and even between an adult and kids version of the game. Every question accompanies three answers from which to choose; when a correct answer is chosen, the rocket ship on the screen ascends towards outer space. Perhaps the most useful part of the activity is the "learn more" link that accompanies each answer, providing kids with a wealth of additional information and encouraging them to explore the subject further.
