Logan Janes of Hillsboro and Aiden Schmidt and Christian Becker of Marion recently attended camps at Hutchinson’s Cosmosphere.

Space 101, which Janes and Schmidt attended, was a weeklong introductory astronaut training camp for middle school students, emphasizing teamwork, leadership, and problem solving.

Becker attended Space 301, a weeklong astronaut training camp for students entering ninth grade. Campers refined their skills on simulators for stress, centrifuge, multi-axis trainers and mission controls, learned about NASA career opportunities, and visited Johnson Space Center in Houston.
