3 Little Pigs in Space Storytime
Description: Join the piglets as they set off into space. Can you construct a habitat/house that will survive the wolf shaped meteor? Includes stories, directed activity and playtime.Up, Up and Away Storytime
Description: Fly high as we take to the skies and learn about planes, airships, balloons, and other flying creations. Includes stories, activities, and playtime.Return to the Moon
Description: Set off to the moon just like future Artemis astronauts as we discover how far the moon is, make landers for humans, and create our own communitiesRobots: Coding
Description: Explore beginning coding with an off screen intro activity and then progress to using a robot that will follow simple codes.Rocketry
Description: Ready to be a rocket scientist? Construct a rocket and then watch it launch using the power of bubbles.Things That Fly
Description: From animals to plants to machines discover why things fly as you create planes, helicopters and kites.Aircraft Design: Forces and Motion
Description: Students design, build, and test their own hand-launched gliders to safely carry a valuable payload. See how balanced and unbalanced forces interact in the glider.Mars Rovers- Natural Resources
Description: Discover alternative energy sources as we build rovers to use either wind or solar power (depending on weather). Brief discussion on renewable and non-renewable sources off planet.Moonquakes: Earthquake Mitigation
Description: Just like Earth, the moon also has shaking. Build a moon safe habitat then test it on the shake table. Examine a map of the moon for the best community locationRobots: Information Processing
Description: Robots and humans share a love of sensors and central processing. Start with an off scree activity to design a robot and then use our Lego or Cubelets to create robots of your own.Rocketry: Gravity
Description: Ready to be a rocket scientist? Students construct a rocket and then watch it launch with high pressure water. See forces in motion.Safe Landing: Gravity
Description: Investigate gravity as we build contraptions to safely deliver a cargo onto the lunar surface.Aircraft Design: Forces and Motion
Description: Students design, build, and test their own hand-launched gliders to safely carry a valuable payload. See how balanced and unbalanced forces interact in the glider.Mars Rovers: Natural Resources
Description: Discover alternative energy sources as we build rovers to use either wind or solar power (depending on weather). Brief discussion on renewable and non-renewable sources off planet.Robots: Algorithmic Thinking
Description: Use our robots to design and debug programming in this hands-on activity.Rocketry: Motion
Description: Ready to be a rocket scientist? Students construct a rocket and then watch it launch with high pressure water. See forces in motion.Safe Landing: Gravity
Description: Investigate gravity as we build contraptions to safely deliver a cargo onto the lunar surface.Space Gloves: Thermal Transfer Device
Description: Help design and test a glove that is both moveable and stands up to the cold.Are We Alone: Aliens and Exoplanets
Description: Examine a recently found exoplanet and design a being with specific traits for the ecosystem found thereAviation Activity
Description: Discover the world of aviationRobots: Cyber Security Ciphers
Description: Use our robot collection to decipher and send secure messages across the classroomRocketry: Energy Transfer
Description: Design and construct a rocket that will convert potential pressure energy into kinetic energySafe Landing: Collision Abatement
Description: Students will engineer a landing system to protect cargo being sent to another planet, using limited supplies students will develop a parachute to lessen the collision.Frontiers of Flight
Description: What's new in aviation? Discover super-fast and super quiet airplanes, personal drones, and other new explorations in the world of flight. This is a bigger group presentation that is interactive.International Space Station
Description: Humans have been living and working on the International Space Station (ISS) since 2000, conducting experiments that have advanced our understanding of biology, physics, and so much more! Learn the history and purpose of the ISS from our engaging presenters, as well as the day-to-day life of an astronaut in microgravity and some of the most significant contributions the ISS has made to science and engineering today. This dynamic presentation includes demonstrations, touchable artifacts, and audience challenges to illustrate relevant concepts.2001 Pan American Plaza, San Diego, CA
