Space Camp Reopens for 2021

Space Camp is back!

The first  trainees were welcomed back to Space Camp during the week of May 23, 2021, and Space Camp staff was overjoyed that the program was returning for its 39th season. In 2021, Space Camp programs, including Aviation Challenge and U.S. Cyber Camp, will welcome students from the contiguous United States and are operating at a 50% capacity due to COVID restrictions. Our first 2021 class of Space Camp alumni graduated with a virtual ceremony on Thursday May 27, 2021.

We have begun welcoming our first groups of Space Camp Alumni to the alumni family, and look forward to connecting them with our existing network! Make sure to join the Space Camp Alumni Facebook Group if you haven’t already, and check back to the website for news about alumni events, Space Camp Alumni Chapter dates, volunteer opportunities, and more!
