We teach data science using data from a live satellite orbiting the Earth. Countdown is aimed at children and young adults interested in coding, computer science, and hands on learning. No prior knowledge of programming is required. We use the Ardusat Satellite and the Arduino platform and take a computer science perspective. The program uses in-class teaching and online resources.

Vector - Rocket Physics for Children 06/07/2016

Amazing new SPACE focused summer camp from the founders of Wynwood Maker Camp. Kids 11+

Vector is a summer camp at Florida International University Honors College starting June 13th, 2016 that is designed for children ages 11+ to introduce the topics of physics and rocketry at a beginner level. Through the summer we will learn about the history of spaceflight, use kerbal space program (a rocket construction and simulation game), construct a water, air, and model rocket, experience the Apollo 11 mission in virtual reality, and compete on a grand mission to find the best team to plan, launch, pilot, land, and safely return home a team of virtual astronauts.

Vector - Rocket Physics for Children Learn about the physics of rocketry by building rockets, simulation with kerbal space program, and virtual experiences through virtual reality.
