Step 1—Unbox and Organize: Sort materials by design domain. Dragster launcher, STEM Boost kits, and SunEzoons are self-contained.

Step 2—Choose Your Domain: Select from five vehicle domains: Dragster Design, Vehicle Racing, Vehicle Engineering, Solar Vehicles, or Force and Motion. Each includes guided challenges.

Step 3—Follow the Lesson Plans: Step-by-step instructions, data collection sheets, and design guidelines included. No prior engineering experience needed.

Step 4—Facilitate and Observe: Guide students through design-build-test-race cycles. Competitions work great for small and large groups.

Step 5—Assess and Celebrate: Host a vehicle racing championship or design showcase to celebrate achievements.

Forces, Motion, and Vehicle Engineering

The Voyager Vehicles program builds understanding of forces, motion, energy, and vehicle engineering through hands-on design, building, testing, and racing. Students practice engineering design thinking, data collection, analysis, and evidence-based reasoning.
