Engineering New Worlds (3-day camp)

This 3-day camp is for children entering grades 4-6

In this camp, children will study what it takes to explore our solar system and beyond. How do astronauts get above Earth's atmosphere, what do living things need to survive in space and how can we get resources on other planets or asteroids? Campers will learn how lift makes rockets fly and the challenges of countering gravity. Campers will be engaged in hands-on experimentation and design their own space colony and hydroponic system.
