Course Description

Learn about the solar system and develop your own space missions to explore it. Create your own space vehicle and the rockets to launch it! Learn by playing Kerbal Space Program (KSP), which NASA engineers say is a fantastic way to learn about the science of space exploration. KSP realistically simulates the flight and behavior of the student’s space ship, providing an exciting and intuitive environment for learning about space exploration, from rocket design to control to orbital mechanics.
As the year progresses, we will raise our sights to ever higher goals–reaching the moon, building space stations, even exploring other planets! Each stage of growth in our space program will be informed by actual NASA missions, but what we create is limited only by our imagination — and the constraints of physics!
