3, 2, 1…Blast Off!

To fly is divine!

Children can build, launch and test their own rockets to learn about aerodynamics, physics, technology and engineering.

Kids can shoot rockets super high with new vertical launchers, send colorful scarves whirling up a wind tunnel, watch a video of real rocket launches and check out real rockets, perfect to illustrate the history of flight!

Take a tour of our exhibits. (3, 2, 1...Blast Off! is not part of our virtual tour.)
