We have THREE CAGIS participants at the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) Junior Astronaut Camp! They participated in CAGIS Junior Astronauts events that ran at chapters across the country with three streams of activities (science and technology, fitness and nutrition, and teamwork and communication) as part of the CSA’s Junior Astronauts initiative.
Participants who successfully completed all three streams of activities qualified to apply to Junior Astronaut Camp. The CSA then selected 52 youth from grades 6 to 9 to attend the week-long virtual camp. Aalaa, Newt, and Sofia will have the amazing opportunity to operate a rover, learn about space careers, and work with scientists and astronauts to solve space problems.
Watch this space to follow Aalaa, Newt, and Sofia’s daily camp journeys!
