Your Family. One Mission. Save the World!
Have you ever wondered what it's like to work together as a team aboard a space mission? Now's your chance to find out!
Join us at the Challenger Learning Center of Maine on Monday, December 28th, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM for Family Mission: Operation Comet. This special family experience invites children and adults to step into the roles of astronauts, scientists, and researchers as they work together to complete a simulated space mission.
A large, long-period comet is approaching Earth, and your crew has an important job to do. Working alongside other participating families, you'll help develop technologies to study the comet, collect important data, and communicate your findings with Mission Control.
But space missions don't always go according to plan! When an unexpected discovery creates an urgent challenge, your team will need to think quickly, troubleshoot problems, and work together to develop a solution. Your new objective? Save the world!
Families will take on different roles throughout the mission, putting communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills to the test inside our immersive space simulation.
