9 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
Monday-Friday, July 17-28

In the Cosmic Investigators Odyssey Camp, students begin their journey of learning to navigate by preparing a star shapes and stories log book. Of course, they will need to know the different types of telescopes, how they work, and build one to take home. Participants will explore our solar system, making moon craters, solar viewing, investigating edible rocks (meteors), conducting planet temperature experiments and building a pocket solar system. Along the way, students will participate in the Viking search for life experiments and look for life in the universe.

Campers and their families are invited to a star party with the River Bend Astronomy Club on the evening of Saturday, July 22 at the Shaw Sky Lab on SIUE's campus.  

Registration costs for Odyssey Science Camps are $325, plus a $25 non-refundable application fee. Registration information is available at siue.edu/summer/camps
