The mission of the Cradle of Aviation Museum is twofold: to engage all ages in the exploration of our aerospace heritage by preserving and displaying Long Island’s contribution to air and space travel; and to inspire, motivate, and stimulate our youth to be the next generation of aerospace scientists and engineers. We achieve our mission through our growing exhibit collection and our ever expanding educational programs.
Project ASTRO PD
Project ASTRO is an education partnership program developed for students in grades four through eight to keep them interested in science. This partnership is a year-long commitment between an educator and an astronomer. Project ASTRO was designed to have students think and act like scientists while participating in fun, interactive, hands-on activities and experiments! This partnership provides resources, lessons, and activities for educators to utilize in bringing the majesty of the heavens into their course curriculum.
Educators are pre-selected for this program before this session, to apply please contact us below
