This week-long overnight camp begins on Monday at 9 am and ends Friday afternoon at 4 pm. Each day, campers will participate in a new hands-on activities including rocketry, flight, robotics, microgravity, light and energy, and the solar system. Using snorkels and masks, campers will learn communication and team skills while building a project underwater at a local high school pool. After meeting PADI* requirements to
participate in the scuba dive, campers will experience neutral buoyancy and work together to complete
underwater tasks during their dive at the local high school pool. At night, they will stay in our space dorms onsite. All of these activities prepare the campers for their final mission, a space flight to rendezvous
with a comet or a mission to Mars. Food, lodging and all activities are included in the price of just $500 per week. Travel to and from the camp is the parents expense and responsibility.
