If CatStronauts inspires your tween reader to want to know more about space exploration, I cannot recommend a trip to the Kennedy Space Center enough.

There you can learn about the Apollo Space Program and NASA’s first visits to the moon and now it’s new Artemis Space Program where we are returning to the moon and anticipate a visit to Mars.

They also just opened a new Deep Space exhibit which is fascinating!

If you cannot make the trip, check out the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) Club Discovery.
