Space U Odyssey is a five-day, hands-on STEM experience for youth ages 11–17, inspired by real NASA missions that puts students in the role of NASA scientists, engineers, and astronauts.

Space Center Houston is partnering with Scouting America, Sam Houston Area Council, for an immersive program that builds teamwork, problem-solving, and critical thinking through exciting space-themed challenges. 

This summer, Camp Strake becomes a launchpad for discovery as Space Center Houston’s Space U joins forces with traditional summer camp adventures for an experience unlike any other. Campers won’t just learn about space—they’ll live it, diving into hands-on STEM programs inspired by real-world space exploration, all while enjoying the timeless fun of camplife.

From astronaut-style challenges, mission simulations, and space science led by Space Center Houston educators, to swimming, canoeing, climbing, shooting sports, outdoor skills, campfires, soaring down our giant zip line, and building friendships that last a lifetime—this camp delivers an unforgettable, out-of-this-world adventure.

Whether exploring the mysteries of the universe or mastering classic outdoor skills, campers will build confidence, spark curiosity, and create memories that will last long after the final countdown.
