The Challenger Learning Center of Colorado, located in Colorado Springs, offers a realistic on-site or distance delivered Mission Control and orbiting space station simulation.  Students join teams at computer consoles or onboard the orbiting space lab, rev up their imaginations, and work together toward the mission's goal, whether it is the launching of a probe or the interception of a comet.  Teachers participate in a preparatory workshop and receive instruction, lessons, and activities that correlate to their scheduled mission. Challenger Learning Centers are committed to working with educators to help them develop the necessary skills, confidence, and competence to teach space science in their classrooms.
