On Target -- On the Go Lesson

The Artemis 3 mission will land the first woman and next man on the south pole of the Moon. The orbiting platform, Gateway, will allow us to land in almost any location we choose using an ascent/descent vehicle – the human landing system. It is important that it lands in just the right spot for the safety of the astronauts and the success of the mission. This engineering design activity will give you the opportunity to design your own model to land on a target.

These To Go Lessons can be used to create a "grab and go" style activity with supplies included. Add your local contact information, print, and cut each sheet in half. The left side can be used on the outside of the paper bag or box to identify the activity, and the right side can be placed in the package as an instruction sheet.

Youth-serving organizations in Iowa are encouraged to contact their local Iowa State University Extension and Outreach county office to explore partnership opportunities in administering this program.
