Reach For The Stars!

Never before in the Valley of the Sun has there been a world-class educational complex devoted to space and space art…a place that will educate, enlighten, and delight the imaginations of an incredibly diverse cross section of the community.

Until Now!

You’re invited to become a premier member of the Challenger Space Center, a unique, world-class space science education complex. The Challenger Center is dedicated to the community, who came together to build this one-of-a-kind facility where children, families, seniors, youth groups, corporate teams, and others will learn about and enjoy the wonders of space and the mysteries of the cosmos.

In addition, the Center is a place where today’s youth will learn and explore much-needed math, science, technology, decision-making, teamwork, and communication skills to prepare them for their entry into the New Economy of tomorrow.
