Working in teams of four, learners build tetrahedral kites following specific instructions and using specific materials.

Learners recreate the classic egg-drop experiment with an analogy to the Mars rover landing. The concept of terminal velocity will be introduced, and learners perform several velocity calculations.

In this design challenge activity, learners use two helium-filled balloons to build a blimp that can travel in a straight path across the room.

Learners engage in close observation of falling objects. They determine it is the amount of air resistance, not the weight of an object, which determines how quickly an object falls.
