WHAT OUR TRAVELERS SAY
- Matthew, C.The Smithsonian at Space Academy Journey far exceeded my expectations. This was not a children’s "space camp" for beginners. This was a well thought out journey as far as what an astronaut actually goes through in their training. Mentally stimulating, and quite challenging at times. – Matthew, P.
- Russell, F.Leave your 'adult' at home… Instead bring your wide-eyed, science nerd 'child.' This is more than an excursion. It is a knowledge-filled experience!
- Marysue, V.The Smithsonian at Space Academy Journey far exceeded my expectations. This was not a children’s "space camp" for beginners. This was a well thought out journey as far as what an astronaut actually goes through in their training. Mentally stimulating, and quite challenging at times.
