AerospaceFest is open to everyone and designed for science enthusiasts, stargazers, explorers, and learners of all ages. A suggested donation of $5 per person helps support the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center's mission to inspire the next generation of explorers. AerospaceFest is the Discovery Center’s annual celebration of all things STEM and highlights the exciting ways local companies, universities, non-profits, and other organizations are contributing to science and education. These organizations will be spread around the Discovery Center’s grounds and exhibit halls, sharing their work with visitors through demonstrations, hands-on activities, and discussions. The event also includes the premiere of a new planetarium show, a Keynote Speaker, and the presentation of the Alex Higgins Memorial Space Camp Scholarship to award winners. Plus, a full line-up of fun on the main stage!
