Mission: Astronaut, proudly presented by Maritime Launch Services, is an interactive exhibition that reveals what it truly takes to live and work in space.
Your mission is as follows:
👩‍🚀 Pack a space capsule, plan your supplies, and practice docking maneuvers through interactive challenges that simulate real training environments.
👩‍🚀 Slip on authentic-style spacesuit gloves, design gear for extreme environments, and simulate essential tasks where precision is the difference between success and failure.
👩‍🚀 Discover what it takes to eat, sleep, and stay healthy while orbiting Earth — where even the simplest tasks become an extraordinary test of adaptation
👩‍🚀 Conduct hands-on experiments to explore how space affects the human body, cultivate plants that might one day feed a Mars colony, and dive into research shaping the next generation of explorers.
👩‍🚀 And more!
With robotics, hands-on interactives, and STEM-based challenges, Mission: Astronaut visitors discover how teamwork and innovation make life beyond Earth possible.
We're ready for launch on May 23rd, see you there!
🌎👩‍🚀🪐🛰️
Produced and toured internationally by award-winning exhibition producers Flying Fish this traveling exhibition is supported by The DoSeum and the Intrepid Museum.
