Solar System on a Stick
Source Institutions
Learners build a model of the planets in the solar system. In their model, the planets are spaced in their relative distance from the Sun.

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

Investigating the Insides
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners work in teams to investigate the composition of unseen materials using a variety of tools.

Jump to Jupiter
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners help create and then navigate an outdoor course of the traditional "planets" (including dwarf planet Pluto), which are represented by small common objects.

Space Jell-O
Source Institutions
Albert Einstein proved that space bends around anything that has mass. This activity uses Jell-O's ability to bend around objects as a model for space bending around planets and stars.

Balloon Impacts
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners measure the diameter of their water balloons, model an impact, measure the diameter of the “crater” area, and determine the ratio of impactor to crater.
