NYC Summer Space Camp

The shuttle program may be ending but future astronauts or engineers can still get their aerospace fix at the New York City Center for Space Science Education's summer camp. Kids train to be astronauts and "fly" a mission to a comet, pilot up to 30 different planes on flight simulators and build robots with a seemingly limitless quantity of Legos. Camp dates not available at press time. One-week session $450. Ages 9 to 14.
