In this activity, learners explore how wind tunnels provide feedback to engineers about the performance and durability of products such as planes, cars, and buildings.

Design a vessel that tests the limits of wind power given a set of off the shelf and recycled materials.

In this hands-on activity, learners use the steps of the design process to create a hook to rescue a "space capsule" from the water.

In this activity, learners build a 1:140 "scale model" of NASA's X-33 Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV) Technology Demonstrator, and investigate how the model dimensions compare to the real vehicle.

This event guide features three related explorations in which learners investigate the following science concepts: how you design and build a structure helps determine how strong it will be; different

In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.

In this activity, learners use tinfoil to build and test their own boats - which designs will float, and which will sink?
