Calling space explorers ages 9 – 14!
Astronomy camp is happening April 18 – 22. What does it take to get to the moon? And what will you find once you get there? Let the Fairbanks Museum and Planetarium help prepare you to become a Citizen of the Cosmos! With some imagination and ingenuity, we’ll find out how to build and launch our own rockets — testing to see which models fly highest or furthest. We’ll also take a look at the latest images from space and discuss the possibility of life on faraway planets. Astronomy Camp is led by Fairbanks Museum educators and planetarium presenters.
Do you want to build a rocket? The last day of Astronomy Camp will be dedicated to gathering safely in-person to launch our home-made rockets! We will all meet at an open field near the Museum to launch the rockets that you put together at home, with our guidance.
