Interstellar Dreams Space Center: Explore, Imagine, Design

Interstellar Dreams is a new take on a summer space camp, designed for rising 6th graders through rising 9th graders that blends “hands-on” fun and “minds-on” tech with their imagination to launch the future of space exploration. Campers will Explore space, Imagine the future, and Design the possibilities of ethical space exploration.  The Interstellar Dreams Space Center at George Mason University is a partnership between the Pearl Project Institute and George Mason University Observatories. Click here for more information and to register.

 

Satellites are used as a vantage point from space to increase our understanding of our home planet, improve lives, and safeguard our future.  We monitor Earth’s vital signs of climate change with a swarm of satellite technology. Join Interstellar Dreams one-week space camp where you will collaborate with teams to develop a unique array of satellite prototypes designed to monitor, measure, and detect threats for an upcoming “CubeSat Constellation” Mission.
