The Christa McAuliffe Center has been running programs for 25 years. Students can get up close with a mission simulator and explore the universe in the many exhibits.
However, one year ago, the pandemic changed everything and switched all programs to remote only. Really, we ve been trying to be creative and to create programs that are still engaging and interactive as much as possible, said Porro.
Students can now take a number of courses online. It s been great, said Evan Pagliuca, who is in charge of virtual programs at the center.
