This problem set and educator’s guide from Space Math at NASA utilizes NASA photographs for scaling activities and mathematical modeling of the Moon’s mass and interior structure. It is useful for applying mathematical proportions and modeling techniques in space science contexts. For students grades K-12+, educators can integrate these exercises into lessons about lunar phases and eclipses, guiding students through step-by-step calculations of planetary traits.
