Senior Space Explorers is designed for children entering the 5th, 6th, or 7th grade in the fall of 2010, and offers four, week-long programs of camp featuring a variety of "hands-on" activities. Depending upon the week chosen our campers will build and launch rockets, learn computer animation, build and program robots, participate in LEGO challenges, discover how astronauts live in space, join the search for life on other planets and more! Campers will also experience simulated missions in our NASA-designed Mission Control and Spacecraft simulators. Campers are encouraged to challenge themselves, using their own skills and knowledge of science and math to explore concepts relating to space flight while working with their teammates on simulated missions to the Moon, to Mars, and to a Comet.
