The Southeast Explorer

The Southeast Explorer is a 38'-long mobile teaching and learning center that will bring the Crisp Museum to potentially every student in the university's 25-county service area. In the current exhibit, students and teachers will be able to experience displays that trace the unmanned and manned space exploration by NASA. Exhibits and activities are geared for grades 3-6.

Explorer programs are free.

Many programs are conducted by outreach specialist Gary Tyler:
