SUMMER STEAM CAMP - ASTRONOMY (Ages 8+)
In astronomy camp, kids learn about our solar system, galaxy and the possibility of life on other planets. We’ll figure out ways to get humans from Earth to Mars, and how we can sustain life there. Campers learn how a telescope works. They build one of two different types of simple telescopes—an astronomical and a terrestrial telescope—each with a magnification of 5X. They then experiment with the different telescope designs and determine how the lens combination in each telescope works to magnify an object’s image. At the end of the week, students can take their telescope home so that they can look at the stars.
