The camp provides a unique opportunity to learn university-level aerospace concepts in an accessible setting, with some programs led by real NASA engineers.
Washington Youth Rocketry offers hands-on aerospace engineering programs that teach STEM concepts through model rocketry. Students engage in exciting demonstrations and interactive classes suitable for all experience levels. Programs cover the entire rocketry project process, from conceptualization and building to launch. Participants learn core rocketry design concepts, including architecture selection, material properties, advanced building techniques, and safety. Students construct fully functional model rockets they can keep, launch, and reuse. A key highlight is the official Launch Day where students test their engineering creations. The curriculum also delves into real-life physics and engineering behind both model and actual rockets, as well as broader aerospace phenomena. Students develop teamwork, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills while exploring topics in aerospace engineering and astronomy.
A typical day involves exciting hands-on projects, classroom instruction by NAR-certified instructors or NASA engineers, and activities that teach STEM and space concepts.
This camp is best for curious students who love space, rockets, or science and are eager to engage in hands-on aerospace engineering.
