Challenger Learning Centers

The Ultimate Field Trip

When you and your students visit a Challenger Learning Center, you’re in for an out-of-this-world experience. Students become scientists and engineers as they tackle real-life challenges in a sophisticated spacecraft simulator or authentic mission control room. But there’s so much more to a Challenger Learning Center mission than the field trip itself.

Teacher training and curriculum support are included with each mission to help you and your students get the most out of the experience. And we’ve gathered additional online resources and post-mission activities here to help you extend the mission even further.
