Campers get a unique opportunity to explore over 40 real aircraft and space vehicles, including jumping into cockpits, and learn from aerospace industry leaders through a "Lunch with a Legend" series.
Air & Space Summer Camp offers a week-long aerospace STEAM adventure for elementary and middle schoolers, ages 8-12. Campers are immersed in hands-on activities designed to ignite curiosity and creativity, exploring subjects like aviation and space exploration. Activities include flying planes in a simulator, watching demonstrations about air pressure and lift, learning basics of flying aircraft from an Academy of Model Aeronautics instructor, and jumping inside the cockpit of real aircraft and space vehicles. Campers also delve into the mysteries of the cosmos with a trip to an inflatable planetarium, construct and launch water rockets and finger missiles, and discover how to program robots. The camp aims to develop skills in teamwork, problem-solving, design thinking, and applied technology, preparing participants for potential careers in aerospace and beyond.
A typical day involves engaging in hands-on activities related to aviation or space exploration, such as flying simulators, building rockets, or programming robots, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This camp is best for students aged 8-12 with a budding interest in aviation, space exploration, and STEAM subjects, who enjoy hands-on learning and interactive experiences.
