Thrills and Spills with the Coaster Creator Game
Looking for a quick, fun way to experience the science behind Operation: Resilient Planet? Try your hand at Coaster Creator, one of JASON's online Digital Labs.
 Rapid energy transfer is the key to roller coaster thrills but be careful - too much kinetic energy and you'll crash, too little and you'll stall. Students use their knowledge of potential and kinetic energy to design their own coaster. With nearly 30,000 games played so far, only the most skilled Coaster Creators make it onto the competitive online leaderboard!
