In this design challenge activity, learners use a balloon and other simple materials to design an air-powered rocket that can hit a distant target.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore model planets (that they or an educator will create), using methods NASA scientists use to explore our Solar System.

In this activity, learners design and build a NASA rover using raw pasta and candy with a limited imaginary budget.

Space Guess Quest is a fun game that encourages participants to identify the many types of objects in space, from human-made spacecraft to nebulas, galaxies, stars, and worlds.

In this activity, learners build edible models of Jupiter and Earth to compare their sizes and illustrate the planets' internal layers.

In this tabletop board game, players will represent a team of scientists and engineers sending a spacecraft on a mission to space.

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

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 cut out and fold their own collapsible origami starshade, an invention that shields a telescope's camera lens from the light of a distant star so that NASA scientists can ex

In this activity, learners build a paper model of the spacecraft and photometer (telescope) used during NASA's Kepler Mission.
