Ignite! Learning, a developer of educational curricula, has put together "Tourist in Space," an education video about the history and recent developments of space travel for the company's YouTube channel. The new video is the latest release of its Current Event's Media series designed to "introduce school-age children to timely issues and scientific advancements often mentioned in the news," according to Ignite!

The video is designed to be both a history and science lesson in space travel, the company said. It focuses on innovations that may lead to space travel becoming commonplace.

Ignite! said it plans to post new lessons regularly for the current events series, which was launched back in January. Each lesson is designed to keep teachers and students updated with advances in sciences and issue-related events and to be able to plug in it into current curriculum.
