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 intermediate-level programming challenge, students use microdevices along with light and mirrors to build a relay that can send information to a distant detector.

Students code microcontrollers to send and receive radio signals, simulating communications between Earth and spacecraft.

Students use simple supplies to model how NASA tracks the location of spacecraft from Earth.

NASA has dozens of robotic spacecraft exploring our solar system – and beyond. So how exactly do we navigate spacecraft that are so far away?

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

Students use satellite data to help determine the greatest renewable energy potentials in any given region and develop graphing skills.

Students work in teams employing an iterative design process to design and build a water filtration device using commonly available materials.

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.
