Mass STEM Week 2025:
Rockets and Space Science Night
New England Sci-Tech holds free public STEM events in conjunction with Massachusetts STEM Week. This year is a celebration of Moon and Mars observation and exploration. We want to encourage people to learn more about STEM in space science, to share Moon or Mars-inspired stories and artwork, and to continue observing the sky and the world around us.
Program is for children in grades 1-6 with accompanying parent to help with paper rocket building and launching.
This year, 2025, Mass STEM Week falls on Mon-Fri, October 20-24. Join us on Wednesday or Thursday evening, either this week or next, for a 1.5-hour fun event.
Children will build and launch an air-powered paper rocket, hold a rock from the Moon, and see a Space Science 3D Show using 3D glasses.
Children can bring a homemade space artwork to show and/or wear space-themed shirts or costumes.
There will be take-home goodie bags for all participating children.
