Rockets

Rocketry Camp: Blast Off into the Exciting World of Science and Flight! Get ready for an explosive week of fun and discovery in our Rocketry Camp! Campers will begin their adventure by exploring the fundamentals of rocketry, diving into Newton’s laws of motion, and learning how forces like altitude, velocity, acceleration, thrust, drag, and lift shape the flight of rockets. In addition, campers will learn about the history of propulsion, flight, and rockets. Through thrilling hands-on experiments and building projects, campers will experience these concepts up close and personal—creating and launching rockets powered by air, water, and solid-fuel propellants. From the very first launch to high-flying experiments, each day will be filled with exciting challenges and discoveries. By the end of the camp, every camper will have built their very own flight-ready model rocket, ready for takeoff. Whether they’re designing, launching, or experimenting, they'll gain a new appreciation for the science behind flight while having an unforgettable, hands-on experience!
