Second Saturday Science

December Second Saturday Science

December's Second Saturday Science event will focus on the critical skill of observation. Just like the scientists and engineers from IMAP, guests will try out hands-on activities that encourage careful observation.


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.

Planetarium Show Times:

9:30 am, 10:00 am, 10:30 am, 11:00 am, 11:30 am

Hands-on activity before or after your show, except for 11:30 show time

This event is free for families, but registration is required.
