For  Families

What is Lunar Challenge About? 

National research has consistently shown that the number one influence on a student's success is the level of parent involvement in education. 

It's About the Possibility....

For Kids:

• Of hanging out with your friends and their families
• Of learning something cool
• Of going to parts of your school never before seen
• Of having fun building things

For Parents:

• Of sharing quality time with your child
• Of helping your child to be successful
• Of finding other families with goals like yours
• Of learning about good education by doing it

Hey, who says learning has to be boring? How would you like to be chosen among the first astronauts to go back to the moon? NASA and the International Lunar Colony Association want you! Got four nights you can spend together at your school?  Ask your teacher or principal to get involved with Lunar Challenge. You can print the page About the Program (pdf) to take to them and get things started in your neighborhood.

Let us highlight YOUR idea of the first lunar colony!
