Activities:
NASA is working towards humans flying to Mars in the next decade. How would you land on Mars? We will look at different technologies that engineers and astronauts will need to use to land safely. Build and test your own Mars lander.
Did you know there is a helicopter on Mars? We will look into how difficult it can be to fly there. Make and test your own helicopter, trying different blade designs just like a NASA engineer.
