Kopernik Observatory & Science Center

Located in the countryside of upstate New York, just outside of Binghamton, Kopernik Observatory & Science Center offers summer camps to students rising into grades 2-12.

Each session runs for one week and gives kids hands-on learning opportunities in STEM. The day camps run from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm. The camp weeks are divided by grade with each session welcoming kids to classes about science, engineering, and space.

The youngest campers can expect activities like creating erupting volcanoes and learning how to use a telescope. The oldest group of students will create and launch a weather balloon and have opportunities to study our solar system.
