The Spacelink team have been working with the Centre for Science Education at Sheffield Hallam University to create a set of PDF based classroom learning resources.

This mission provides an opportunity to do some careers and personal development work embedded within a STEM context.
Biosphere covers a lot of fairly familiar work about photosynthesis and respiration and could be used in normal curriculum time.
The mission concentrates on how a scientist might approach the search for extraterrestrial life.
Life on Mars looks at the mission to get to Mars - via the Moon. Most of the mission thus concentrates on the Moon rather than Mars.
The Next Giant Leap explores some of the new technology that will be required to move from our ‘local’ system of Earth and Moon to Mars and potentially beyond.
Off the planet covers the development of the latest generation of rockets designed to lift humans off the Earth and into space.
These resources are slightly different from the other missions in that they are designed to be used in the contexts of the other missions rather than as a sequence of activities in themselves.
