Space Explorers Academy
Zoom past the Sun, dodge swirling storms on Jupiter, glide by the rings of Saturn and venture out to the icy giants at the edge of our solar system. Along the way you’ll uncover brilliant planet facts, jaw-dropping discoveries, and the secrets of what it takes to explore space for real.
Created especially for 6 to 12-year-olds (and the grown-ups who love space just as much!), this high-energy show is packed with big visuals, brilliant storytelling and plenty of cosmic surprises.
Whether you’re a future astronaut, a stargazing super-fan or just curious about what’s out there, this is your ticket to an unforgettable trip through space.
Strap in. Count down. And get ready to explore the universe with the Space Explorers Academy.
