The educational video “Toys in Space II” was taped during the flight of STS-54. The video shows astronauts on the space shuttle and students back on Earth co-investigating the behavior of toys in space. Video program segments show the toys’ behavior in 1 g (Earth’s gravity) and then their behavior in the microgravity environment of space. Activities, brief descriptions of what happened during the space shuttle flight, and science and mathematics links are available in the Toys in Space II Video Resource Guide.
