One of the biggest highlights from last week’s Community Celebration Day? Stomp rockets! 🚀✨

Our visitors stepped into the role of rocket engineers for the day, designing and decorating their own rockets before sending them soaring into the sky!

This was a chance to learn about physics and flight, in a hands-on, interactive way. It was a BLAST watching our future engineers test their designs and launch them into space. 🚀 ☄️ 🔭
