Flight & Space

The exciting world of aerospace comes alive through Flight and Space. Students explore the science behind aeronautics and use their knowledge to design, build, and test an airfoil. Custom-built simulation software allows students to experience space travel.

Students will explore a variety of different flying machines. We will explore how different machines leave the ground and maintain flight. Students will have the opportunity to create a paper rocket, a balsa wood glider, a ripcord helicopter and a tissue paper hot air balloon.
