YESCI 217 - NASA: Space Exploration with OSIRIS Rex (Age 13-15)

"Go flight!" Explore asteroids, problem solve, and learn about NASA's latest venture in this OSIRIS-Rex themed workshop. As the groundbreaking spacecraft performs deep space maneuvers in preparation for its landing on the Bennu asteroid, students will develop critical thinking skills and teamwork in an attempt to keep their own "spacecraft" on mission. The final day of class will be spent at the University of Utah launching our own rockets! Don't worry, parents, OSIRIS-Rex is an unmanned mission, so your kids will remain safely on the ground.
