“I've always been into things like exploring and science on the frontiers. I had pictures of space up in my room way back in middle school, right next to the boy band posters!”
-Christina Koch, American Engineer and NASA Astronaut

Coming Up on Universe Unplugged

Cosmic Wanderers: Comets & Meteors in Motion!
May 17, 11:00 AM

Comets and meteors might look like tiny space rocks, but they’ve got some seriously cool stories to tell. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll uncover the secrets of these icy, rocky wanderers—where they come from, why they sometimes light up the sky, and what they can teach us about the early days of our solar system. You'll even get to touch real space rocks, watch a comet nucleus come to life, and make your very own comet craft to take home. Space is calling—are you ready to explore?
