This will be a 30-minute journey from the Sun to Pluto, followed by an opportunity to see, touch, and hold meteorites. After our journey, there will be a solar system craft to enjoy.

Dan, from Clive, has been part of this NASA program since 2018. In his volunteer role he presents information about our solar system and the universe to libraries, schools, the Science Center of Iowa and more!
