Hands-On Programs

Dig into the science beneath your feet and above your head. Students become planetary engineers and crater detectives in immersive labs where they model impact events, explore meteoritic materials, and simulate missions to mine asteroids and build lunar habitats. These hands-on programs are designed to spark curiosity and inspire real-world problem solving.

Guided Expeditions

Stand on the edge of impact—literally. Our guided rim tours, led by knowledgeable science educators and astrogeology experts, take students deep into the story of the crater’s formation, the physics of impacts, and the vital role Meteor Crater played in training Apollo astronauts. It’s a field trip that feels like a mission briefing.

Science Shows

Experience science that soars. Our high-energy shows combine live demonstrations with stunning multimedia to explore the cutting-edge science of asteroid mining, the engineering behind planetary defense, and the global effort to detect and deflect hazardous space objects. It’s explosive science—minus the extinction event.

Special Events

Meet the minds shaping the future of space. MeteorQuest special events bring students face-to-face with astronauts, planetary scientists, aerospace engineers, and explorers pushing the boundaries of human knowledge. These rare opportunities connect young learners with real-life role models who prove that the sky is not the limit.
