Collaborating with the Hong Kong Family Welfare Society, volunteers taught space science to children between the ages of 5-9 from divorced or blended family. During the service, volunteers introduced basic astronomy like solar system and signs of the zodiac. By sharing knowledge of space science to the kids, it could not only let them know more about the universe, but also arouse their interests in science.
