Welcome to the NASA Web site
Robin Whirlybird on Her Rotorcraft Adventures
This web site was made possible by funding from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Rotorcraft Base R & T Program. It was developed by NASA Ames Education.
This educational web site is designed for classroom use by teachers and students in Kindergarten through grade 4. It is also designed for homeschool use and for use by those who are interested in rotorcraft.
The web site is actually an on-line, interactive book about one girl's visit with her mother to the rotorcraft research center at which her mother works. Not only is the story enjoyable to read with its full color pictures, there is also a lot to do on each page besides read the story. Each button within the menu bar allows the student or user to explore other topics about rotorcraft as well. Exploring with your cursor the illustrations on each page, and clicking on hot spots will also bring up more rotorcraft information.
From all involved with this project we hope you enjoy learning about and exploring the world of rotorcraft.
