Students generate maps and physical models of simulated surface features on Jupiter’s moon Europa while learning how spacecraft make maps using radar.

Students will compute the approximate travel time to planets in the solar system using different modes of transportation.

Students perform a simple science experiment to learn how a rocket works and demonstrate Newton’s third law of motion.

Students explore the science behind an intriguing planetary feature by creating saline solutions and then observing what happens when the solutions evaporate. Now updated with findings from Mars!

In this activity, students learn how light and energy are spread throughout space. The rate of change can be expressed mathematically, demonstrating why spacecraft like NASA’s Juno need so many solar panels.

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!

In this illustrated problem set, students use pi to detect frost in lunar craters, determine the density of Mars' liquid core, calculate the powered output from a dam, and find out how far a spacecraft travels as it returns data to Earth.

In this illustrated math problem, students use the mathematical constant pi to calculate the area covered by a laser used to detect frost on the Moon's surface.

In this illustrated math problem, students use the mathematical constant pi to determine the density of Mars' liquid core.
