Students play a strategy card game that requires them to use problem-solving to successfully explore the Moon and Mars. Plus, *NEW* Outer Worlds Expansion Pack now available!

Students use simple supplies to model how NASA tracks the location of spacecraft from Earth.

Students will use the engineering design process to design, build, test and improve a model satellite intended to investigate the surface of a planet.

Students will design, build and test a crew exploration vehicle, or CEV, to carry astronauts to Mars – meeting size, mass and payload requirements.

Students work in teams employing an iterative design process to design and build a water filtration device using commonly available materials.

Students build a rubber-band-powered rover that can scramble across the room.

In this board-game lesson, students learn basic computer programming skills by playing the roles of a Mars rover, scientist and engineer to make exploration decisions and accomplish science goals.

Using only pasta and glue, students design a rover that will travel down a one-meter ramp and then travel an additional one meter on a smooth, flat surface.

Students build a solar oven and learn about the importance of solar energy for establishing a lunar base.
