Students will blast off to the moon to meet scientists and engineers, explore jet propulsion, and design a rocket ready for a test launch. Then we "Go for Launch" where students will use coding skills to navigate the Orion space capsule through a series of challenges on its way to the moon.
Each workshop can be adapted and delivered as either:
A 1-hour workshop for 4 classes
A half-day workshop for 2 classes
