Inspiring the Next Generation of Explorers
The Challenger Learning Center of Kentucky offers an immersive, space-themed learning experience for students, families, seniors, corporate teams, and community groups. Participants embark on simulated space missions in our state-of-the-art facility, which features:
A Mission Control Center modeled after NASA’s Johnson Space Center
A Transporter/Space Shuttle
A Spacecraft/Space Station simulator for conducting experiments and launching deep-space probes
We partner with schools across the region, delivering hundreds of hours of in-class, hands-on lessons in coding, engineering, robotics, and more. Each year, we host the Regional Qualifying Tournament for FIRST LEGO League — a global robotics competition that encourages critical thinking, teamwork, and community engagement. The tournament features a new real-world theme every year to challenge and inspire young innovators.
