~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Do you enjoy hands-on activities? Would you like to build rockets that can travel over 200 miles per hour? How about designing a landing craft with a mass of only 45 grams - about the weight of a cell phone - capable of protecting an egg dropped from over 40 feet?

Students at camp will be involved with many different aspects of astronomy, aerospace, science, and math. They will tackle problems faced by real NASA scientists and learn the latest information on current space missions. Our goals are to provide meaningful, hands-on experiences in the space sciences and to foster the natural curiosity and interest that children have in space exploration.

• Air Powered Rockets

• Principles of Flight

• Hands-on Activities
