U.S. Space & Rocket Center Space Camp

If your child dreams of being an astronaut but still doesn't quite meet the age or height requirements, Space Camp is the perfect opportunity for them. This camp is open to students ages 9+.

Camps are divided and 9-11 year olds go into Space Camp while 12-14 year olds join Space Academy and older teenagers become part of Advanced Space Academy.

Each of the programs is a week-long, and campers stay in dormitory-style rooms which are separated by gender. Camps are held at the Museum of Space History in Huntsville, Alabama.

Activities offered to campers mimic the training NASA astronauts go through. They will have a chance to try out the 1/6th Gravity Chair, build model rockets, launch a simulated mission to the ISS while learning what life is like on board, and loads more.
