Students balance circular and gravitational forces to create a model of an object in orbit.

Youth use creativity and problem solving to design and drop a parachute spacecraft.

In this engineering challenge, students must stay within design limitations while creating a balloon and gondola system that can descend or ascend at a given rate or maintain its altitude.

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

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!

Students design a robotic insect for an extraterrestrial environment, then compare the process to how NASA engineers design robots for extreme environments like Mars.

In this illustrated problem set, students use pi to compare the sizes of Mars landing areas, calculate the length of a year for a distant solar system object, measure the depth of the ocean from an airplane, and determine the diameter of a debris disk.

Students learn how scientists assess wildfires using remote sensing and solve related math problems, appropriate for various grade levels.

Students apply their math problem-solving skills to a real-world challenge with a unique connection to NASA's Space Shuttle Program.
