Space Adventures

3-2-1 Blastoff! Put on your space suits and climb aboard Spaceship Kopernik for an exciting exploration of our solar system and beyond. We will begin our journey with our closest neighbors, the planets and moons. From there will move beyond our solar system to explore stars and galaxies.  We'll learn about rockets and spaceships, rovers and telescopes.  Learn about astronauts and what they need to survive in space. Make friends and work with your teammates as you imagine what it's like to explore space.

KOSC Summer Camp Registration Basics:

• KOSC Members get a 15% discount on STEM Summer Camps. Memberships can be purchased directly during registration.




• Early Bird Tuition is available through May 31. Add $20 when registering after May 31.




• Early drop off (8 am) and late pick up (4 pm) are available for an additional $20/day. This can be added during initial registration or closer to the camp's start date.




• Camps have a maximum enrollment and many fill quickly each year. Register early and avoid the waiting list.




• Refunds are available (less a $15 administration fee) if a student withdraws 14 days prior to the start of camp. No refunds are provided for cancellations within the 13-day window prior to camp. In case of cancellation due to insufficient enrollment, participants will be notified one week in advance and will receive a full refund.




• At checkout, there is an option to pay by check, if preferred. When sending a check, please make it out to Kopernik Observatory & Science Center and include a note specifying where the funds should be applied (especially for those registering for multiple camps). Checks must be sent to Kopernik at the time of registration and pay for the camp in full. Please contact Kopernik directly with questions or concerns.




• Some camps offer two sessions, designated Session A and Session B. Please note that the curriculum in each session is identical.




• A welcome email will be sent approximately one week before the first day of camp providing specifics on the class and a letter from the teacher.
