STEAM for Teens & Tweens: Protect Your ‘Eggstronaut’ (Grades 6 - 12)

  • Date: 05/25/2024 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM  
  • Location: Orange Public Library & History Center Community Room
    407 E. Chapman Ave.
    Orange, California 92865
  • Introduction: Orange Public Library & History Center

For decades, NASA has designed vehicles that must protect their precious cargo—human astronauts (and robots!)—when landing on the Moon, Mars, or returning to Earth.  Now, there is a heavy emphasis on reusable vehicles, to help decrease the cost of space travel.  In this workshop, we will explore physics and build a reusable device that can survive dozens (or even hundreds) of falls from the same height. Presented by Sami Fakih with Blue Origin. Grades 6-12.

Sponsored by Orange Public Library Foundation, with grants from SoCal Edison and Rotary Club of Orange.

Registration is required. Register online to sign-up.
