The EV3 Space Challenge Set is composed of three 2' x 3' learning mats, one 4' x 6' challenge mat, a large number of LEGO® elements for building the challenge models. When combined with the EV3 Space Activity Pack, you can teach 30+ hours of activities in the following categories:

• Basics of Gears: Students apply physical science and math principles to build effective robots.
• Learning Missions: Students progress through nine distinct missions in which they investigate, observe, calculate, and apply their knowledge to solve specific tasks.
• Challenge Missions: Students apply and creatively adapt programming and problem-solving skills to design and build robots to solve seven very different space challenges.
• Research Projects: Students explore, plan, and develop around three fundamental challenges NASA engineers and scientists are working to solve – how to ensure humans can survive in space, how humans can create energy in space, and how robots can help humans explore space.

The EV3 Space Challenge Set and Activity Pack are designed for use with the LEGO MINDSTORMS Education EV3 Core Set and EV3 Software, sold separately.
