I'm not sure about your sons age or grade level but here are a few things we did when my twins were into space and time: We followed the NASA program via online sources, kept up with the rover program etc... we studied the history of astronomers and each of them did a very detailed biography (research skills and how to write a bibliography) on the astronomer of their choice, we read the Time Machine by HG Wells along with a detailed novel unit (various writing and extension activities to cover grammar etc...) and then because of the Mars Rover program we branched off into robotics, built robots using spare parts around the house and then again with the fancy Lego Mindstorm kit, read iRobot, by Asimov and did a novel unit again. There's a ton of math opportunities to tie in with space and time, Kahn Academy helps make them understandable. This is one of my favorite aspects of homeschooling, being able to completely construct a curriculum around an interest area that my kids have discovered. Hope you have a great time with this one!!!
