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.

Use this model to demonstrate the goal of NASA's Kepler Mission: to find extrasolar planets through the transit method.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a rubber band-powered rover that can scramble across the room.

Use this Moon Map Guide to help learners identify features on the Moon, while looking through a telescope.

In this activity, learners are introduced to challenges of maintaining temperatures while living in space.

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.
