Also noted in the article is the importance of attracting young girls to the STEM fields including science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. This is something we feel strongly about at the Cosmosphere.We love to see young students find their inspiration as they learn about all sorts of topics– from rocketry to gardening in space!
Summer enrollment for aerospace camps is open now–It’s going to be the Best Summer Ever!
