Science Fact or Fiction: The Superhero Landing
by Sarah France
Could Iron Man actually survive a superhero landing? In this lesson, students follow the engineering design process to create a "suit" for an egg to protect it from being dropped on the ground. They will have limited materials and time to create their suit, as Tony Stark had similar restraints when making the first Iron Man suit. Students explore forces, gravity, and collisions through the lens of science fiction.
