Geometry and Algebra: The Future Flight Equation
Source Institutions
    
  In this activity, learners discover how NASA engineers develop experimental aircraft.
   
Lift Experiment
Source Institutions
    
  In this experiment, learners investigate how the size of a wing affects lift. Learners count the number of pennies an egg crate plane wing can hold until the plane will no longer fly.
   
Living Bones, Strong Bones
Source Institutions
    
  In this activity about engineering, nutrition, and physical activity, learners design and build a healthy bone model of a space explorer which is strong enough to withstand increasing amounts of weigh
   
Heavy Lifting
Source Institutions
    
  In this activity, learners work in NASA teams to build balloon-powered rockets using identical parts and compete to launch the greatest number of paper clips to "space" (the ceiling).
   
Design a Landing Pod!
Source Institutions
    
  In this team design challenge (page 11-18 of PDF), learners design and build a Landing Pod for a model Lunar Rover (previously built in activity on page 1-10 of PDF).
   
Make a Comet Model and Eat It!
Source Institutions
    
  In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.
