In this activity, learners are introduced to challenges of maintaining temperatures while living in space.

In this astrobiology activity (on page 11 of the PDF), learners consider what organisms need in order to live (water, nutrients, and energy).

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.

In this activity, learners build a sled kite that models a type of airfoil called a parawing.

In this activity, learners create their own constellations and star patterns and write a short, descriptive story explaining the significance of their star pattern/constellation.

In this engineering challenge, learners design and build a crane out of cardboard to see how heavy a load it can lift.

In this activity (on page 134 of the PDF), learners explore reaction time.

In this activity learners observe mold growth on different types of bread by measuring and recording the growth rate.

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.

In this team design challenge (page 19-24 of PDF), learners "land" a model Lunar Rover in a model Landing Pod (both previously built in activities #3 and #4 in PDF).
