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.
Defying Gravity for Brownies
Girls will learn the basic mechanics of rocket building using solid fuel and water bottle rockets. Brownies will join in the fun as they first watch the launch of the solid rockets, then build their own bottle rockets that reach 50-100 feet in the air!
Defying Gravity for Juniors & Cadettes - Currently At Capacity
Girls will learn the basic mechanics of rocket building using solid fuel and water bottle rockets. Juniors and Cadettes will build solid fuel rockets using Estes Alpha III rocket kits. When launched during this program, your rocket could soar up to 300 feet in the sky!
