Looking for a Fun Astronomy Camp done Virtually, well this one's Out of this World! With our Summer Astronomy Camp, children ages 7-12 can be inspired to think big, dream big, and to foster curiosity about an enormous universe in which the boundaries appear unlimited. The spark of interest often ignites in young minds where the ABC's of the universe are brought to light. Exciting two-day sessions for children with lots of fun STEM hands-on activities as they are guided into the mysteries of the universe by a real astronomer who was a consultant with NASA and worked with a space telescope. The entire time is filled with constant fun and excitement as everyone experiences a supernova explosion of new knowledge and understanding in this virtual journey throughout the cosmos. With the understanding of some simple terminology and concepts, they are better informed about space and the celestial objects that reside overhead. Some of the many outrageous activities include constructing a starfinder, using Oreo cookies to see the phases of the Moon, and use star charts to locate galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters. Topics include: • Astronomy for Everyone: Size & Scale of the Universe • Roadmap to the Stars: the Night Sky Explained • A Grand Tour of the Solar System & Beyond • When Celestial Bodies Collide: Eclipses & Other Phenomena • Telescopes: Eyes on the Universe Many fun and educational STEM hands-on activities are done throughout the mini camp.
