Just in time for the Total Solar Eclipse, the Science Zone is inviting visitors to expand their knowledge of outer space by exploring the history of flight, navigation and NASAs vision for the future of earth and space exploration.

Mission Aerospace wants to inspire the next generation of explorers to value where we are today and to look towards aviation of tomorrow. Turn that inspiration into flight by building your own rockets and paper airplanes and testing them for distance and air-dexterity in the target-filled launch arenas.

Can your rocket reach Saturn? Can you fly your plane around the world? Can you tweak your plane to do tricks? Science Zone officials say that the exhibit is a good way to learn more about aviation and aeronautics that have taken astronauts to the moon and back.

The Science Zone, via social media, has said they will be open on Sunday, August 20th, 10am to 5pm. Monday for the day of the eclipse, the Science Zone will be closed from 10am to 2pm, and only open from 2pm to 5pm.

If you have any questions please call The Science Zone at 307-473-9663.
