Students will create a beautiful piece of art while learning to recognize the geology on planetary surfaces. In this project-based activity, students use the elements of art - shape, line, color, texture, value - to make sense of images of planets, asteroids, comets, and moons, honing observation skills and inspiring questions.

Students experience the fundamentals of the engineering design process, with a hands-on, critical-thinking, authentic approach. Using collaboration and problem-solving skills, they develop a mission to search for life in the Solar System that meets constraints (budget, mass, power) and criteria (significant science return).

This game board is a supplemental resource to be used with the lesson "Astrobiobound!" In this fun, interactive card simulation, students experience the fundamentals of the engineering design process, with a hands-on, critical-thinking, authentic approach. Using collaboration and problem-solving skills, they develop a mission to search for life in the Solar System that meets constraints (budget, mass, power) and criteria (significant science return).
