Students design and build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two "astronauts" when they land.

Students modify a paper cup so it can zip down a line and drop a marble onto a target

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.

Students build rubber-band-powered rockets and launch them at various angles to learn about rocket stability and trajectory.

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.

Students learn about Saturn's scientifically intriguing moon Enceladus and investigate its fascinating features, including its ocean and plumes, using math.

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 kinesthetically model the mathematics of how NASA communicates with spacecraft.
