Mission Simulations

The Challenger Learning Center of Alaska offer students the next best thing to actual space flight with a Mission Control room designed after NASA Johnson Space Center and an orbiting space station. The Missions’ Commander and Flight Director direct our mission specialists in the orientation room where they are given an overview of the mission as well as their crew assignments. A minimum of 14 and up to 32 students will be divided between Mission Control and the Space Craft. Following mid-brief, crew members will switch so each student experiences both Mission Control and the Space Craft.

Missions: 2½ hours long

Discounted School/Class Rate: $600.00
