Outer space is one of the most extreme environments imaginable. It’s freezing cold, airless, and covered in cosmic radiation. But with the help of technology and brilliant engineering, astronauts have successfully survived and thrived in this forbidding frontier. Join us for an interactive Lunch + Learn, accompanying the opening of our new traveling exhibit, Journey to Space. Get a glimpse into the real challenges and dangers of space exploration along with the high-tech solutions that keep astronauts safe. With high-flying rocket launches and the chance to create your very own vacuum chamber, you’ll be part of the action in every demonstration.*
