Highlights:
Kennedy Space Center is America's gateway to the Universe. It is the location from where man set off on a historic voyage to land on the moon and from where all of NASA's missions are launched into Space. The Camp KSC programme at NASA's Kennedy Space Center is a unique opportunity for students to connect with the future and learn an early appreciation for engineering, technology, science and space travel.
Modules at John F. Kennedy Space Center
NASA’s John F. Kennedy Space Centre set the stage for the American adventure in space. Sprawled across 140,000 acres on Florida's Atlantic coast, the center has hosted the succession of rocket launches that have rewritten our knowledge of aeronautics and Chosen because of its perfect location, with the wide Atlantic providing a buffer, Kennedy Space Center manages and operates America's astronaut launch facilities. Serving as the base for the country's three space shuttles, KSC has been the launch site for every U.S. human space flight since December 1968. Its iconic Vehicle world by Volume [1 ] and was the largest when completed in 1965.
Each year, millions of visitors from across the world make the trek to this hub of technology and discovery, where many of mankind's greatest Kennedy Space Center will continue to make history as NASA embarks At Camp Kennedy Space Center (KSC), young students will experience, imagine and interact through space shuttle mission simulations, tours of Kennedy Space Center and the chance to witness you don’t have to be an astronaut to train like one. Modules during stay at KSC are:
Astronaut Hall of Fame - Students enjoy a guided tour of the Astronaut Hall of Fame. They will view spaceflight memorabilia, space-related artifacts, and an actual Mercury spacecraft and Gemini Training spacecraft. They will also experience a variety of hands-on activities in our Simulator room. On our Education Training Floor, students will experience the thrill of motion-based astronaut training simulators modeled after those used to train for the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and Shuttle Programs. This may include the Multi-Axis trainer, Micro-Gravity Wall, and T-Chair (trajectory).
Meet and Greet with an Astronaut - Students meet an actual space explorer, who will talk about the future of space exploration. Students are encouraged to ask questions and later they receive an autographed souvenir from their astronaut guest.
Rocket Garden and Early Space Exploration
Educators introduce the concept of space travel by guiding students through the early years of NASA. Students encounter and photograph the actual rockets, spaceships spacecraft and spacesuits from the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs while hearing stories of our early space heroes. Educators guide them through a detailed explanation of the operation of Launch Complex 39 where Apollo 11 started its historic journey to the moon. Students construct, then launch, their own air rockets in a field adjacent to the huge rockets in the historical Rocket Garden. Prizes are awarded for distance, design and accuracy.
Windshield Tour –The students follow the path the Shuttle takes as it exits the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) onto the crawlerway on its journey to Launch Pad 39A. Students also have the opportunity to view the Shuttle Landing Facility, site of the shuttle’s return home to the Kennedy Space Center.
Apollo/Saturn V Center
Students are transported aboard a KSC bus to the spectacular Apollo/Saturn V Center where dramatic multi-media shows and numerous hands-on displays provide visitor with an inspirational and exhilarating look into America’s quest for the moon. Students relive the historic launch of Apollo 8 at the Firing Room Theater, then marvel at a monstrous 363-foot long Satrun V moon rocket. Finally, the Lunar Theater provides a rare look at the harrowing final moments before man landed on the moon.
“Apollo- Soyuz” Cultural Exchange
International students are introduced to students from Camp KSC’s domestic camp, for an international Cultural exchange
“Moon Beams" Team Engineering Challenge
Students team-up as they are presented with a NASA engineering challenge: To design, build and test a truss segment similar to those that might be used aboard future spacecraft. Prizes are awarded to the teams who design and construct the strongest truss segment.
World Space Agencies
Students receive an up to date briefing on the state of international space efforts. Educators will highlight the achievements of each space faring nation.
3D-IMAX Films
Students view fantastic 3-D IMAX films on the International Space Station on one of Kennedy Space Center's 5-story IMAX screens.
Lunch with an Astronaut
Students experience a buffet lunch and meet an actual space explorer, who will talk about the future of space exploration. Students are encouraged to ask questions and later they receive an autographed souvenir from their astronaut guest.
* The above sample agenda is subject to change due to KSC operations, Visitor Complex operations, launches and special events. KSC is a dynamic, active operational space flight facility. Every effort will be made to include all program activities above, but activities may be presented in different sequences due to center operations and requirements.
During the three day camp at Kennedy Space Center students will:
1. Work on innovative projects
2. Participate in a day long astronaut training experience
3. Meet a NASA astronaut who will share his/her experiences
4. Take exclusive tours of the facilities at NASA's Kennedy Space Center
5. Watch space shows and space movies
Tour of Kennedy Space Center
