Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama

John Horn and son Charles prepare for a simulated space walk at Space Camp in Huntsville, Ala. The camp, part hands-on field trip, part sleep-away camp, is an outgrowth of the U.S. Space & Rocket Center's museum education program. Space Camp is aimed at science-minded kids ages 7 to 18, some of whom bring their parents. Activities include low-gravity rides and simulators, pretend space walks and the study of rocket history.
