Join us for an evening to experience a virtual space mission simulation with the Challenger Learning Center, members of the St. Louis American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), and local educators. The St. Louis Section will also recognize its Educator Associates at this event.
Program participants will take on the role of Mission Controllers tasked with monitoring the operations of a small Mars outpost crew. The team must work together to track, program, and land a rover on the surface to aid the team. As the Mars outpost crew journeys out onto the surface, the Mission Controllers will need to guide them as they face challenges in order to complete the mission.
