Printing tips

  • Choose “Actual size” (100%) so SUPERNOVA and CONSTELLATION stay full-length in the grid.
  • No starfield backgrounds here — clean black type keeps the pages ink-light.
  • The grid fits inside the Letter and A4 overlap, so neither paper crops it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which space words turn up across the ten grids?
The pool runs from the planets and the moon to ASTEROID, NEBULA, ECLIPSE, and SATELLITE, plus exploration words like ROCKET and SHUTTLE. Each puzzle draws a fresh 20-word mix from that pool.
Are the eight planets all included?
Yes — Mercury through Neptune appear in the pool alongside the moon and the sun, so a single puzzle may quiz several planets while the full set covers them all.
Do the puzzles name any spacecraft or mission brands?
No. The vocabulary stays generic — SPACECRAFT, OBSERVATORY, TELESCOPE — with no agency, mission, or company names, so the set is safe for any classroom.
Is the type really large enough for older eyes?
It is — letters print at 28 points in Atkinson Hyperlegible, a low-vision typeface, one puzzle per page so nothing is shrunk. The footer restates the point size on every sheet.
