The Cosmosphere

The scouts just returned from a trip to the Cosmosphere in Hutchinson, KS and I’m going to tell you all about it.
Once we arrived at the Cosmosphere, the scouts were told what we would get to do while we were there, and then we began the tour of the museum.
We got to see lots of things that they took into space for everyday use, as well as their space suits.
We also got to see a space rock, but unfortunately we couldn’t touch it. After the tour, we started working on the Robotics badge. We got to add parts to robot machines, and have battle rounds like “Battle Bots”. This was a lot of fun!
That evening, we got to sleep under an actual spaceship, which was really cool!
The next morning after breakfast, we finished battle rounds, worked on our Engineering badge and saw an IMAX movie, before we headed home.
This was definitely one of my favorite overnights.
