Aspiring astronauts and engineers of all ages get ready for blastoff at Shelter in Space, an out-of-this-world extravaganza hosted by NASA solar system ambassador Cynthia Shelton, planetary scientist Tara Tomlinson and librarian Emily Zollo. After watching footage of some recent rocket launches, kids start building their very own spaceship together out of papier-mâché and other materials. Everyone is encouraged to bring stickers, hardware and other supplies with which to personalize their section of the ship. Wear clothes that can get messy; kids under 6 must be accompanied by an adult or teen.
