February Second Saturday Science
Join us for our February Second Saturday Science, a family-friendly celebration of the planet Venus and the science of space! Named after the Roman goddess of love, Venus connects perfectly with Valentine’s Day as we explore both its beauty and its extreme planetary science. Enjoy a captivating Venus-themed planetarium show, hands-on activities, and playful Cupid-inspired twists that blend science with the theme of love and discovery. Perfect for kids and adults alike, this event invites everyone to explore one of the solar system’s most fascinating planets.

Second Saturday Science at Challenger Colorado is about giving families time to do science together. We provide hands-on, content-rich activities designed to encourage thoughtful engagement, teamwork, critical thinking, and problem solving among family members. Activities are leveled for school-age students and their parents/guardians and are coupled with a planetarium show highlighting the Colorado night sky.
Plan on spending at least an hour at the center working through activities and viewing the planetarium presentation.
This event is free for families, but registration is required.
