The Road to Mars

Mars 2030 is the next destination for human deep space exploration. Our driving need to answer the question; “Is there life on other planets” is at the heart of our curiosity. Rich with scientific discovery, Mars, is an opportunity to ethically expand human presence in our solar system. Join Interstellar Dream’s one-week space camp where you will assume the role of habitat planner, planetary scientist, geologist, space architect, and engineer to plan mission goals, design human living habitats, and build transportation vehicles.

Session #1: June 24-28 (Mon.-Fri.) 9:00am-4:00pm

The Interstellar Lunar Gateway

Humankind is headed back to the Moon to build the next pathway to other worlds in our solar system. To accomplish this goal, we must organize a team of experts to analyze, prepare, and design working systems for scientists, researchers, and habitat designers. Join the Interstellar Dreams one-week space camp where yo u will design lunar research programs, lunar habitats, adapt a framework for international collaboration, and create Lunar life support plans for human survival.

Session #2: July 8-12 (Mon.-Fri.) 9:00am-4:00pm

Earth is Changing: Observe with Micro-Satellites

Satellites are used as a vantage point from space to increase our understanding of our home planet, improve lives, and safeguard our future. We monitor Earth's vital signs of climate change with a swarm of satellite technology. Join Interstellar Dreams one-week space camp where you will collaborate with teams to develop a unique array of satellite prototypes designed to monitor, measure, and detect threats for an upcoming “CubeSat Constellation” Mission.

Session #3: July 15-19 (Mon.-Fri.) 9:00am-4:00pm

Planet Hunters Unite: Search for Strange New Worlds

Habitable worlds have been a curiosity of humankind for thousands of years. Today, powerful ground telescopes and space satellites like Hubble and Kepler, have identified thousands of other planets called exoplanets (a planet that revolves around another star). Join our Interstellar Dreams one-week space camp as we utilize our current understanding of the atmospheres of exoplanets, the planets, moons, and minor bodies of the Solar System to look for signs of life in our Galaxy.

Session #4: July 22-26 (Mon.-Fri.) 9:00am-4:00pm

The Ferocious Sun

4.5 billion years old, our Sun is the largest and most powerful object in our solar system. Without the Sun’s energy, life as we know it could not exist on our home planet. Its power and ability to control everything we know as true are governed by its daily activity. Join our Interstellar Dreams one-week space camp to observe, analyze, and head-off serious impact eruptions, charged particles, and influences on Solar System visitors. You will build websites, take 3D walks in space, learn to code to solve mission-critical challenges, and host a Solar Observatory Press Conference.

Session #5: July 29-August 2 (Mon.-Fri.) 9:00am-4:00pm

Space Travelers: Living and Working in Space

A Bioregenerative Life Support System (BLSS) is crucial for space travel, creating artificial ecosystems where plants, animals, and microorganisms work together. The BLSS team enables extended-duration missions, deep space exploration, and sustains multiple crews by mimicking Earth's biosphere, providing essential functions like oxygen production, waste recycling, and food production. Join Interstellar Dream’s one-week space camp where you will assume the role of habitat planner, planetary scientist, space architect, Space Entrepreneur, and mechanical engineer to plan mission goals, and design a sustainable regenerative life support system.

Session #6 : August 5-9 (Mon.-Fri.) 9:00am-4:00pm

Space Entrepreneurs: Design A Space Business

Space entrepreneur revolutionizing travel beyond Earth. From pioneering space food and clothing to extending satellite lifespans and crafting in-orbit manufacturing solutions, they're pushing the boundaries. With ambitions spanning civilian space travel, private space stations, and lunar settlements, they're shaping the future of humanity's cosmic journey. Join Interstellar Dream’s one-week space camp where you will assume the role of habitat planner, planetary scientist, space architect, Space Entrepreneur, and mechanical engineer to plan mission goals, and create innovative solutions for a new space company.

Session # 7: August 12-16 (Mon.-Fri.) 9:00am-4:00pm
