Detailed description
The Canadian Space Agency's Youth STEM Initiatives team will be at Tipis and Telescopes, a weekend of star stories, ceremony, Indigenous science and community. It will present its learning resources, activities and opportunities about space and the Moon for educators and youth. A virtual reality experience will also be offered at the booth.
We would like to thank our hosts from IndigeSTEAM and are happy to have provided a grant to buy telescopes for their Land and Sky Summit STEAM Camp for First Nations youth in grades 10 to 12.
