Pascal’s Theorem gives a synthetic geometric condition for six points in to lie on a conic. Namely, that the intersection points , , are aligned. One could ask an analogous question in higher dimension: is there a coordinate-free condition for points in to lie on a degree rational normal curve? In this paper we find many of these conditions by writing in the Grassmann-Cayley algebra the defining equations of the parameter space of ordered points in that lie on a rational normal curve. These equations were introduced and studied in a previous joint work of the authors with Giansiracusa and Moon. We conclude with an application in the case of seven points on a twisted cubic.
