NASA Connect - Measurement, Ratios, and Graphing: 3,2,1 Crash

NASA Connect Video containing five segments as described below. NASA Connect segment exploring how NASA scientests use measurement, ratios, and graphing to help test aircraft at the Impact Dynamics Research Facility. NASA Connect segment involving students in a web-based activity called Edutour sponsored by Nauticus. The edutour is a digital tour of the NASA Langley Aircraft Landing Dynamics Facility. NASA Connect segment explaining NASA Langley's Aircraft Landing Dynamics Facility, or ALDF. The video explores how scientists are using math and technology to test tires, wheels, and brakes. NASA Connect segment involving students in a hands-on activity that simulates the research from the ALDF test track. The students use an Effervescent Non-combustible Dragster to test different ratios of water and effervescent tablets then students graph the data. NASA Connect segment exploring the NASA Langley facility. The video also explains the history of NASA Langley and how scientists there use measurement, ratios, and graphing.
