MathAlive! is designed to inspire, to spark the imagination, to reveal not only math at work, but the endless possibilities of math. The exhibition brings to life the real math behind what we love most – sports, dancing, design, music, movie-making, robotics, and more – in highly immersive and interactive experiences.

Ride in a live-action snowboard race, control a Mars rover, fend off cyber invaders from inside a computer game, and capture your image in a 360 freeze-motion video. You’ll also explore and operate simulations of NASA’s latest robotics, including the Curiosity Mars rover; design and test a super tall skyscraper; or test your engineering skills as you master-plan a more sustainable infrastructure for a city.

You’ll be accompanied by the BotZ – fun and quirky virtual guides – and along the way you’ll meet and hear professionals, visionaries and inspiring personalities talk about math in their work across a range of different career fields. When done, you’ll also get a special code with which you can download a special augmented reality experience, your reward for graduating from the exhibit.

Developed in collaboration with National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, NASA, MATHCOUNTS, National Society of Professional Engineers, and Society of Women Engineers.
