The goal of the Space Knowledge Center is to create interest in the STEM fields of study among young people and get to know their connection with the rapidly growing space industry. In order to achieve the set goal, the center has defined three target groups - the learner, the teacher and the family. A separate offer has been created for each of the target groups. Lessons linked to the learning standard for students, current affairs in the world and their connection with innovative pedagogical methods for teachers and meaningful, educational time spent for the family. The center offers an educational exposition, classrooms, as well as a laboratory and activities for all target groups, for the realization of the cognitive process.
