NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, for the fourth year in a row, has created an illustrated Pi Day Challenge. It features four math problems that scientists and engineers must solve using the mathematical constant pi.
Students in grade six through high school can have fun solving the problem set which includes:
- Solve a Martian crater mystery
- Measure the size of the moon’s shadow during a total solar eclipse
- Plot the trajectory for Cassini’s daring orbit around Saturn
- Discover potentially habitable worlds outside our solar system
Answers to the problems will be released March 16.
