Martian Adventures (Grades 4-5) - PM only

Get ready for an out-of-this-world adventure! In this immersive week-long camp, students become astronauts-in-training as they dive into the science, engineering, and problem-solving behind planning a mission to Mars. Campers will take on team challenges, build and launch rockets, engineer their own space habitats, explore real CU Boulder astronomy tools, and test rover technology as they navigate a simulated “Martian” landscape. We’ll wrap up with the ultimate mission: discovering what it would take for humans to one day live on Mars. By the end of the week, students won’t just understand the real science of space exploration—they’ll feel ready for their own journey to the Red Planet!
