SUMMARY:The Stellars - Misson: Green
DESCRIPTION:The Stellars - Mission: Green\n\n \nThe Stellars - Mission: Green is a show aimed at our youngest explorers\, ages 3 to 8. \nImani\, Aki\, and John are three friends from an alien solar system. While on a space exploration mission\, something routine for their people\, they distractedly neglect their onboard “chores\,” leading their ship to crash on an unknown planet – Earth. The accident damages the life-support system that sustains the cherished forest they keep onboard\, which gives them their vital Yumi-Plumi fruits. However\, forests in their society are usually taken care of by robots. \nWith no knowledge of plant care or any means of contacting their elders\, they are fortunate to be able to turn to the planetarium audience for help. All hope now rests on the Earth children\, who help the Stellars discover what plants need to survive and to rescue their Yumi Plumi forest. There is a race against time – will the children be able to figure out the successive elements needed to nourish the plants? \nThe Stellars - Mission Green premieres in the Sudekum Planetarium June 1\, 2025! \n\n\n\n\n English \n\n Español de México  English\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Inventors Unleashed: Build\, Test\, Discover
DESCRIPTION:Inventors Unleashed: Build\, Test\, DiscoverWeek 4: June 15 - June 19What if you could build a working clock by hand? Program a robot to solve a challenge? Mix a shampoo formula like a real scientist? This week\, your camper doesn't just hear about famous inventors. They become one! Every day\, campers tackle a different invention challenge inspired by history's greatest minds. They'll engineer towering structures and test what makes them stand (like Benjamin Banneker)\, create their own prototype to solve a real problem (like Madam C.J. Walker)\, build working electrical circuits to light up bulbs (like Ada Lovelace)\, and explore how light bends reality with hands-on physics experiments (like Einstein). By Friday\, they'll understand what every great inventor knows: the best ideas come from trying\, testing\, and trying again. This is the week where "what if?" becomes "I built that!"

SUMMARY:Inventors Unleashed: Build\, Test\, Discover*
DESCRIPTION:Inventors Unleashed: Build\, Test\, DiscoverWeek 9: July 20 - July 24What if you could build a working clock by hand? Program a robot to solve a challenge? Mix a shampoo formula like a real scientist? This week\, your camper doesn't just hear about famous inventors. They become one! Every day\, campers tackle a different invention challenge inspired by history's greatest minds. They'll engineer towering structures and test what makes them stand (like Benjamin Banneker)\, create their own prototype to solve a real problem (like Madam C.J. Walker)\, build working electrical circuits to light up bulbs (like Ada Lovelace)\, and explore how light bends reality with hands-on physics experiments (like Einstein). By Friday\, they'll understand what every great inventor knows: the best ideas come from trying\, testing\, and trying again. This is the week where "what if?" becomes "I built that!"
