Smart Skies

Welcome to Smart Skies!

Smart Skies is a program developed by NASA to engage students in Grades 5-9 in real-life applications of mathematics and science. The program enables students to apply proportional reasoning to make decisions and resolve conflicts in realistic air traffic control problems involving two or more planes.

There are two aspects to the program: LineUp with Math and FlyBy Math. Both are well-suited to formal and informal educational settings. Student workbooks and educator guides (with answer keys) have been classroom-tested and are provided for all problems.
