Details

Canada is heading to the Moon!  We’re marking the occasion by exploring the role STEM plays in meeting the challenges of space travel. From gravity assists to space suits, we’ll examine what it takes for astronauts to survive outer space on missions like Artemis. Plus, we’ll consider what comes next in space exploration. There’s a science to getting ready for a mission like this. Let’s experiment, observe and learn together!
