Challenger Learning Center

The Challenger Learning Center is dedicated to the memory of Alvin H. and Emily T. Little.

The Kalamazoo Valley Museum's Challenger Learning Center (CLC) is an innovative educational facility complete with a 21st century Space Station and Mission Control. Part of an international network, Challenger Learning Centers are founded in memory of the Challenger 51-L crew to carry on its educational mission. The CLC is a hands-on, fun, learning experience, designed to complement science and math curriculum for middle school and up.

Corporate Missions provide organizations with valuable team-building experiences, while Junior Missions are designed to give younger children who wish to participate a glimpse of the full-scale program. Age restrictions are imposed, both for safety reasons and as a courtesy to other participants.
