OliOli UAE dedicates the 49 th UAE National Day to U.A.E’s visionary and inspiring space program with its ‘An Astronaut in Every Child’ program at its Astronaut Training Camp.
On October 16th, 2020, OliOli UAE launched The Museum of the Moon, to mark the successes in UAE’s space exploration missions, and introduce the subject of space to families in an exciting and hands-on manner.
The Astronaut Training Camp is created to further elevate a Child’s space experience through 6 space-themed hands-on activities, which young aspiring astronauts can enjoy following their introduction to the space theme at the Museum of the Moon.
The 6 interactive activities are:
- Reaction Timer: Astronauts need to be super focused and remain calm under pressure. Do you have the reflexes to meet this challenge?
- Rocket Racers: To be an astronaut you need to be fit and healthy. Create as much kinetic energy as possible to get your rocket into space first.
- Phases of the moon: A crafting activity to help understand the phases of the moon and why we see the moon in different shapes in the night sky.
- Moon Maze: Navigate your moon rovers across the lunar surface to complete challenges. You’ll use our Sphero robots to manoeuvre across the lunar surface.
- Systems Controls: Astronauts need to have an understanding of circuits in order to repair anything if it goes wrong while on the international space station. Using our specially created circuit blocks see if you can restore all our control systems.
- Communication Station: Using microbit controllers, decode messages and maintain vital communication with our astronauts in space. This activity uses real astronaut recordings.
