Treating earthlings to a special experience, aliens (science center educators) will shed light on the night sky, galaxies and the universe with space-themed activities. Guests are also invited to a special screening of the new WXEL-TV children’s program Space Racers.
Space Racers is a new animated preschool program that follows young spaceship cadets as they soar through the Solar System, learning about the power of scientific investigation and observation, the wonders of space exploration and the importance of working together as a team. Get a behind-the-scenes look from the show’s creator, Richard Schweiger.
