Aviation
Have you ever wondered how airplanes, kites, rockets, drones or hot air balloons are able to fly through the air? If you answered yes, AVIATION is for you. Let’s RACE and BUILD model planes, hot air balloons, rockets, and kites as we explore the how and why of aircraft flight by conducting engineering experiments. Learn about the science, people, and careers behind aviation. Come fly with us!
Science Phenomena
Are you filled with wonder and curiosity? Have you ever asked yourself, what is thunder? How does a cruise ship float? Why does the ocean have tides?
Let’s take a look at how and why things happen. We will work together to uncover scientific mysteries and design solutions to real-world problems. Together, we can expand our scientific knowledge and learn to see the world around us in a brand-new way! Are you ready?
