But wait!! There's more! ;) Mars Academy In Mars Academy, teams of campers will find out if they have what it takes to survive on Mars!

Re: So, 2023.....?

JoAnna sent me the activities list. Do you remember which you did in 2022? There's definitely a few that I would be interested in. There are 2 different camp options Mars Academy or a STEM. Below are the activities available for each option. Mars Academy In Mars Academy, teams of campers will find o...

Re: So, 2023.....?

I looked into the Cosmosphere yet they have no adult camps scheduled. They can accommodate you with a minimum of 5. Yet it's the chicken and the egg... They have no brochure since they have no regular adult camps so you have nothing to show anyone to generate interest. Tuition is cheaper yet you pro...

Re: Early 80’s flight suit

I'm returning this suit to the seller so you might want to keep an eye on Ebay for it again. It was in pretty good shape, just too tight in the chest & waist for me and too loose in the sleeves and legs.

Re: AstroTrek Returns?

Yet my general feeling is that corporate camps have also changed, that they are no longer true custom design your own camps. Rather, you start from the base of the standard USSRC adult advanced space academy (which I see has a virtual graduation, too), then substitute. I admit, I have nothing to ba...

Re: Beavis and Butthead do Space Camp?

A common misconception is that having a trademark means you legally own a particular word or phrase and can prevent others from using it. However, you don’t have rights to the word or phrase in general, only to how that word or phrase is used with your specific goods or services. https://www.uspto.g...

Re: Name Badges

I met Charlie Walker today, 3-time payload specialist. His name tag had an orbiter silhouette in the center. It's the first time that I've ever seen that, so I asked him about it. He said that's what NASA came up with for payload specialists. I should have taken a picture. He's there through 4/12 so...

AstroTrek Returns?

I feel that this piece somewhat echoes what I've been saying for years. As USSRC removes missions and other activities from the adult camps to keep costs down, they become less space camp and more tourist cosplay. The usual retort to that is that there are corporate camps. Yet my general feeling is ...

The last time I was at USSRC in 2017, it was sitting on the floor with Colbert painted on it. I looked inside and it was empty.

Same thing happened at USSRC... The motion base simulator that I flew as Endeavour in 1991 is just an empty shell now.

Re: Adult Advanced Space Academy

The reason that they don't release the schedules prior to camp is accountability. People could hold them responsible then if they failed to provide something. No one is going to hold them accountable if, for example, dinner is at 6 instead of 5. Yet there will be something said if they fail to provi...
