 Find out how, by using the most powerful word known to mankind the “I” word (don't know what the "I" word is come and find out), to find a way through the maze of planets (12 at last count-but who's counting), to explore the life and death of a star (make your very own white dwarf), black holes work (watch as we warp the fabric of space), We will find out who is smarter than a fifth grader with Cosmic Survey Cards (start studying now otherwise you will not have a chance), with Wayne Bird of the American Astronomical Society and Observatory Director (Once it's built) of the Westminster Astronomical Society. Learn fun and unique ways to leave the planet, journey to the stars and still be back in time for lunch.=0D=0A=
