Students model the position of the planets around the Sun and then model viewing them from Earth on any given date.

In this illustrated problem set, students use pi to compare the sizes of Mars landing areas, calculate the length of a year for a distant solar system object, measure the depth of the ocean from an airplane, and determine the diameter of a debris disk.

Students use math concepts related to transits to discover real-world data about Mercury, Venus and planets outside our solar system.

In this illustrated math problem, students use pi and physics to calculate how long the Kuiper Belt object Arrokoth takes to orbit the Sun.

Students use advanced algebra concepts to determine the next opportunity to launch a spacecraft to Mars.

In this illustrated problem set, students use the mathematical constant pi to solve real-world science and engineering problems related to craters on Mars, a total solar eclipse, a daring orbit about Saturn, and the search for habitable worlds.

Students put their pi skills to the test to solve some of the same problems NASA scientists and engineers do.

In this illustrated math problem, students use the mathematical constant pi to find out how long it takes a Mars orbiter to make one revolution around the Red Planet.

In this illustrated math challenge, students use the mathematical constant pi to calculate how long it will take an Earth satellite to image the entire planet.
