The Challenger Learning Center of Maine

Founded in 2004, Challenger Maine is a private, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization and part of a worldwide network of 40 Challenger Centers established to honor the crew of the space shuttle Challenger by continuing their educational mission to learn, to explore, and to inspire.

Through our state-of-the-art NASA Mission Control simulations and hands-on STEM programs and camps, we engage students from all 16 Maine counties in experiences that build teamwork, problem-solving, and confidence.
