Out Of This World Science!

🚀

Rocket Launch Command

Blast off! Launch several types of rockets and learn how propellants are used to escape Earth’s gravity.

🪐

Strange Orbits

Explore our solar system and discover the orbital mechanics that govern our Sun, planets, and moons.

🛰️

Remote Rovers

Mission control! Learn how NASA engineers pilot robotic rovers across the surface of the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

Cosmic Expansion

Visualize the Big Bang and cosmic inflation using our giant Mega Hoberman Sphere for a spectacular star-studded finale.

🚀 Did you know? We do real space science!

While Fizzics Education now works with the AVA Challenge to help students put real experiments on the International Space Station, our journey actually started in local backyards. We have been running space science parties since 2010, having launched our very first science party back in 2004.

Led by a Churchill Fellow, we haven’t changed our focus: combining fun and real science to ignite a lifelong love of discovery for kids, right in your own home.

Science Party Review

T. Davenport, Chatswood:

The program appealed across a range of age groups and cross-gender. The children enjoyed the variety of activities and the pace of the presentation. As parents we especially liked the way the children were encouraged to inquire & learn in a non-academic fashion.

J. Bullock, Harbord:

The boy's had a fantastic time. Pouring rain, 16 very active 8 year olds - it was (still) the best party we've had. Great interaction, well organised and learning in a fun way.

Requirements

🚀 Mission Logistics

Space Science: Requirements

🛰️ Launchpad Setup

🎂 Age Profile: 5 years and up.

🏠 Space: Garage, veranda, or lounge. Outdoors needed for slime.

💧 Utilities: Running water, power, & 2 towels.

Duration: 60 minutes (+30 min set up/pack up).

If you can’t go outside, we pivot! We substitute slime for edible sherbet making and an extended indoor science show.

✨ Always flexible, always fun

Mission Briefing (FAQ)

Are the space activities fun?
Yes! Between launching rockets and making alien slime, kids are constantly in on the action. We use humor and high-energy demos to keep the mission on track.

How messy is the “Alien Slime”?
It’s tactile and fun, but we’ve run thousands of parties since 2004. We manage the mess, use non-staining materials, and ensure the lab is clean before we blast off.

What if we have a range of ages?
Space science is for everyone! Our presenters adjust the “scientific jargon” to suit the audience, ensuring younger astronauts and older flight directors all have a blast.

What happens if it rains?
The mission is weather-proof! We move the launch to a garage or lounge and focus on our awesome indoor vacuum chamber and light experiments.
