Aerospace Camps

Registration is now FULL for 2025 Aerospace Camps

Thank you for your interest in 2025 summer Aerospace Camps. All camp slots are now FULL. 
Continue to follow us here and on social media for next year's camp date announcements, expected to be released in the spring 2026.

This summer, the National Museum of the United States Air Force will offer free one-day beginner-level aerospace camps for students who will enter grades 5 or 6 in the 2025/26 school year. 

During these camps, students will learn the basics of rocketry principles while having fun building their own model rockets.  All the necessary supplies for these free camps will be provided. Students may be able to launch their rockets during the camp. If launch on camp day is not available, information will be provided for when, and how, the students will be able to launch their rockets locally at a later date. All materials required for rocket launches will be provided at the scheduled launch event.

Activities Include:
✅ Interactive lesson on rocketry and Newton’s Laws
✅ Hands-on model rocket building
✅ Guided tour of the Space & Missile galleries
✅ Outdoor model rocket launch (weather permitting)
