Educator Resource Center

Earth and space science educational materials designed for all ages are available to local educators at our Education Resource Center (ERC).

Classroom-oriented publications are available on a variety of topics, including the following:

  • Planets
  • Astronomy
  • Aeronautics
  • Space Shuttle
  • Life in space
  • Careers
  • The environment.

Wallops personnel also are happy to consider special requests and will work with educators to customize materials to the age group and topic.

Educators may copy videotapes, using their own VHS tapes. A list and description of the tapes is available at the ERC. Because of a limited number of machines, reservations are requested for videotaping.

The ERC, located at the Wallops Visitor Center, is open Thursday through Saturday July and August, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Educators may call the ERC during operating hours at 757.824.2214. Educators also are invited to use the Educator Resource Center at the Goddard Space Flight Center. For more information, write or call:
