Imagine Mars teaches students science through the arts, letters, and humanities.

The Mars Student Imaging Project allows students to use a camera on the Odyssey orbiter to take their own image of the red planet and analyze it using the scientific method.

Mars Robotics Education is a program in development that aligns with technology-education standards.
