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

In this activity, students use spreadsheet software and their knowledge of scale, proportion and ratios to develop a solar system model that fits on a playground.

Students model the position of the planets around the Sun and then model viewing them from Earth on any given date.

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

Students develop a model to represent the collision of two black holes, the gravitational waves that result and the waves' propagation through spacetime.

Students learn about cloud types to be able to predict inclement weather. They will then identify areas in the school affected by severe weather and develop a solution to ease the impacts of rain, wind, heat or sun.

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

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

Students use NASA images and a hands-on activity to compare the amounts of land and surface water on our planet.
