Calling all young adventurers to join our NERD Astronaut Training Program for an out-of-this-world journey through the cosmos! You have a lot to learn and a lot of astronaut training to do!

Budding space explorers will dive deep into the mysteries of the universe. From unraveling the secrets of our solar system’s formation to discovering the forces that shape galaxies, every day will be filled with exploration and discovery. How big are the planets, really? How far away is the moon? We will build scale models to help us understand and visualize!

Through hands-on experiments, participants will learn about the forces that govern our universe, build and launch rockets into the stratosphere, create their own comet, and even simulate the landing of a Mars rover on the red planet’s surface (EGG DROP)! The wonders of space await…
