Campers are immersed in a real aerospace museum environment, providing unique access to actual aircraft and space vehicles, and opportunities to interact with aerospace industry leaders.
Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Summer Camp offers an immersive, week-long aerospace experience for campers aged 8-14. Held at both the Air & Space Museum in Lowry and Exploration of Flight at Centennial Airport, the camp focuses on hands-on STEAM activities. Campers will engage in launching rockets, coding drones, robotics, and 3D printing. They will also explore space, learn about the science of flight through demonstrations and flight simulators, and discover how to program robots. The camp aims to ignite curiosity, build skills, and foster a lifelong love for science and aviation.
Activities include experiencing flight in a simulator, watching demonstrations about air pressure and lift, and learning the basics of flying aircraft. Campers will also construct and launch water rockets and finger missiles, and have the opportunity to troubleshoot issues like aerospace engineers when designing and maintaining equipment. The program also features a "Lunch with a Legend" series, where campers can hear from and ask questions of pilots, astronauts, and scientists.
A typical day involves hands-on STEAM activities such as building and launching rockets, coding drones, and engaging with robotics and 3D printing, with a focus on aviation or space exploration.
This camp is best for students aged 8-14 who are curious about aviation and space exploration and enjoy hands-on science and technology activities.
