A great way for students to participate in real-world science is through the TomatosphereTM project. Sponsored by the Center for the Advancement of Science in Space (CASIS), Tomatosphere is a free program available to K-12 students in the United States and Canada.
One of the most immersive activities offered at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is spending time living and working on Mars as an astronaut trainee in our visionary Mars Base 1. This summer, we transported more than 1,000 guests to Mars in our Pegasus-class crew module aboard the Mars Transfer Vehicle, Concordia. Learn about their missions in the Botany Lab.
The slide in Space Shuttle Atlantis is a guest favorite. Learn why it is more than just a speedy thrill!
Be sure to add a field trip to Mars, or rather Mars Base 1, this school year at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex! Do your students have what it takes to keep the Base operating on the Red Planet?
