PJ Haarsma's Author Visits - click here see what educators are saying.

Kids can discover the universe with PJ’s visual presentation of science, aliens and the stars beyond.

PJ has teamed up with NASA to expose students to the exciting professions offered in the sciences as well as explore the wonders of space.

Using The Softwire, PJ ignites the students’ imagination with the possibilities and impossibilities of space travel. What will be required of us if we ever want to leave earth like JT and his friends did?

PJ leaves each and every teacher with a wealth of class projects and beautiful space imagery courtesy of NASA.

PJ shares his creative process with the children and encourages them to stretch their imagination to create their own stories about outer space. If your interested in having PJ Haarsma visit your school click here for specific details.

Every presentation is complete with NASA class projects and PJ even leaves official NASA space imagery for your classroom.
