SPACE CAMPS – HANDS-ON LEARNING

Space Camps – Space • Astronomy • Science • Robotics • 3D Printing • Cryptography

Our space camps which include astronomy, science, and robotics provide an array of learning experiences – from astronomy, physics and astrobiology (with the same equipment once used by NASA), to simulate space missions that teach leadership, teamwork and STEM principles. Or you may choose an experience in robotics, sensors, artificial intelligence (AI); cryptography and secret messages; computational thinking; 3D design/printing and more.

PARI is located on a 200 acre historic NASA site, nestled in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, and provides a once in a lifetime exposure to science, outdoor adventure, leadership development, social comradery and fun.
