In 2017, the Michigan Science Center was awarded a grant from the Michigan Space Grant Consortium. With this grant, the Michigan Science Center was able to develop and pilot a Mars themed after school program for 3rd through 5th graders called the Red Planet Pioneers. The program focused on how we might get to the red planet Mars. In this session, we will be discussing the program, trying out one of the lessons together, and discussing how the materials can be accessed to implement your own Red Planet Pioneers after school program.
