Earth Science

Understanding different aspects of Earth's climate, seasons, atmosphere and related aspects opens up windows to compare and contrast other planets within our solar system and in other star systems as well. Understanding what happened to Venus is critical to understand global warming in our home planet. (1 session)

Live Stargazing Session

As much as we learn about stars, planets, and other celestial objects, see them in pictures, the experience of looking at them live with our naked eyes and through binoculars and telescopes is truly amazing. One look at Saturn's rings through the telescope can trigger a sense on wonder and awe for a lifetime. (1 session)
