In this illustrated problem set, students use pi to compare the sizes of Mars landing areas, calculate the length of a year for one of the most distant objects in the solar system, measure the depth of the ocean from an airplane, and determine the diamete

In this illustrated math problem, students use pi to compare the size of the landing zones for the Mars rovers Curiosity and Perseverance.

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

Students learn about surface features on Mars, then use a visual programming language to create a Mars exploration game.

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.

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

This visual math problem set gives students a chance to use the mathematical constant pi with some of the real calculations space explorers use every day.

This infographic features four real-world math problems involving NASA spacecraft and science, and the mathematical constant pi.

In this cross-curricular STEM and language arts lesson, students learn about planets, stars and space missions and write STEM-inspired poetry to share their knowledge of or inspiration about these topics.
