To Infinity And…Space Camp!

Most of us have dreamed of being an astronaut at one point or another in our lives. I used to imagine what it would be like to float gracefully in outer space while looking down on the earth. Now my fantasy just involves being weightless. I digress.  Interest in space exploration continues to explode as part of the STEM movement. There are tons of incredible opportunities for making space science a part of STEM travel. Check out these space camp opportunities:
