Here is the list of questions used by Joan Borg Marks and her colleagues in Malta for the 'Children's Voices' interviews.
What is space?
What can you find in space?
Do you think that there is anybody living out there?
What do you like most about the Universe?
What do you like most about the planet we live on?
Do you imagine that anything is moving in the Universe? What is it that you imagine?
What do you think about the sky? What comes to you from the sky? How does it make your life better?
Would you like to become an astronaut or a scientist? Why?

Joan Borg Marks is a Physics Lecturer at the Univerisy of Malta. But she is also a keen astronomer and very involved in the activities of the Astronomy Volontary Group in Malta. She worked with St. Paul's Bay Primary School and collected stories and thoughts form the children about the Universe.
Joan and Melchiore, both Astro-Club members, sent us these videos for UNAWE's Children's Voices initative.
In this video, the students tell us of astronomical adventures they would like to embark on ... or have they already?
