Challenger Learning Center
A unique opportunity to strengthen team building
The Mission Control Room near the rear entrance to the Strasenburgh Planetarium is part of the Challenger Learning Center of Greater Rochester, a high-tech, hands-on facility for space flight re-enactments.
During a Challenger mission, you are stationed for one hour in Mission Control and one hour in the Challenger Spacecraft module, simulating a mission to Mars with assistance from Mission Commanders. Each participant is awarded a certificate upon completion of the mission.
