They will provide access to high-quality telescopes, allowing you to observe celestial bodies up close, while sharing intriguing facts and stories about our solar system and beyond.
In addition to the stellar sky-watching experience, attendees can indulge in a variety of delicious food options, engage in creative face painting, and enter a raffle for a chance to win a telescope of your very own—a perfect opportunity to continue stargazing at home!
This family-friendly event is designed to provide a safe, educational, and entertaining atmosphere for all ages, making it a perfect outing for families and friends. Don’t forget, you’re welcome to bring your own telescopes to enhance your experience even further!
The Challenger Learning Center is part of the renowned Challenger Center for Space Science Education, an international non-profit organization dedicated to inspiring and engaging students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Founded in April 1986 by the families of the astronauts lost during the Challenger space shuttle mission, this center serves as a beacon of hope and education in the community.
