To celebrate the successful landing of Curiosity, NASA’s latest Mars Rover, our featured movie of the day is Mars! When asked, “What are martians?” Tim and Moby respectfully debunk the existence of these fictitious green friends, and explain a few fun facts that about the “red planet.”  After checking out the movie and interactive features, be sure to try the GameUp, “Fly to Mars” simulation game.

Gasps of excitement filled the BrainPOP offices this morning as the Space Shuttle (atop a 747) flew past our windows! Everyone was standing by the windows, mouths wide, with the cameras in hand! In celebration of the shuttle’s new home in New York, today we’re providing free access to our Space Flight movie.  Want more free content about space exploration?  Check out our Space Spotlight or build a solar system on GameUp!
