Students explore different types of space missions and observation techniques that scientists use to study distant objects like asteroids.

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

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 observe the process and results of transpiration from a plant in their schoolyard.

Students explore the relationship between magnetism and electricity to model how scientists determined that Jupiter's moon Europa has a subsurface ocean.

Using real data from NASA’s GRACE satellites, students will track water mass changes in the U.S.

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

Students learn how Mars rovers use spectroscopy to study the chemical composition of rock samples on the Red Planet then model the process in the classroom.

Students will learn about the expanding universe and the redshift of lightwaves, then perform their own calculations with a distant supernova.
