This quick demonstration (on page 11 of PDF) allows learners to understand why scientists think water ice could remain frozen in always-dark craters at the poles of the Moon.

In this Engineering Design Challenge activity, learners will use balloons to investigate how a multi-stage rocket, like that used in the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission, can propel a sat

In this space science activity, learners explore transits and the conditions when a transit may be seen.

In this activity (on page 5 of PDF), learners use dry ice and household materials to make scientifically accurate models of comets.

By tossing, collecting, and sorting beanbags, learners understand how the IBEX spacecraft uses its sensors to detect and map the locations of particle types in the interstellar boundary.

In this activity, learners simulate a multistage rocket launch using party balloons, fishing line, straws, and a plastic cup.
