Space Camp Competition
This is a chance for you and your friends to win a place at next year’s Space Camp where you will spend time learning more about outer space and having wonderful space-like experiences. It also includes a visit to the National Space
Centre. The camp will run from 5th to 10th May
2010 and will include accommodation, food and a host of fun and educational activities. All this is free to the winning teams but would normally cost you $450 per team.
At the camp
When you reach the camp there will be experts showing you how it all works. You will also get the opportunity to experience what weightlessness in space can be like by scuba diving. Once you can do this well you will have to try to build a satellite under water!
