ROADS from Earth to Venus (2025-2026)
ROADS from Earth to Venus Student Challenge

For the 2025-2026 Challenge, NESSP has developed eight Mission Objectives (MO) inspired by NASA’s missions that study the Earth and its sister planet Venus! Registered Challenge teams document their progress by completing the MOs in a Mission Development Log (MDL) and submit their materials to NESSP for team recognition.*
The ROADS From Earth to Venus is an excellent team activity suitable for in-class group projects, school robotics, programming, other club activities, Scout troops, and other community organizations.
*This year, the application is limited to educators in Arizona, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Washington. Priority will be given to educators who have served as a Mission Advisor for a ROADS Challenge team within the past three years (Artemis ROADS I, II, or III) or who have completed the 2025 ROADS From Earth to Venus Professional Development.
