Students draw and interpret topographic maps while learning about technology used to map Earth's surface, the seafloor, and other worlds.

In this engineering challenge, students must stay within design limitations while creating a balloon and gondola system that can descend or ascend at a given rate or maintain its altitude.

Students use a visual programming language to create a Mars helicopter exploration game.

In this illustrated problem set, students use pi to calculate the size of a Mars rock sample, compare the mirrors of two space telescopes, deduce an asteroid's makeup, and size up a solar eclipse.

In this illustrated math problem, students use pi to compare the area of the Hubble Space Telescope and Webb Telescope’s primary mirror.

In this illustrated math problem, students use pi to calculate the approximate density of the asteroid (16) Psyche and compare that to the density of known terrestrial materials.

In this illustrated math problem, students use pi to figure out how much of the Sun’s disk will be covered by the Moon during an eclipse and whether it’s a total or annular eclipse.

In this illustrated math problem, students use the mathematical constant pi to find the "habitable zone" around a distant star and determine which of its planets are in that zone.

Students use a spreadsheet model to understand droughts and the movement of water in the water cycle.
