You may not realize it, but since in its original iteration as a NASA tracking station in the ‘60s through later use as a Department of Defense satellite data collection point, the facility intentionally kept its activities on the down low.
Today, the InfoAge Space Exploration Center (ISEC) is known in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) circles for its range of hands-on educational and research opportunities.
Scientific instruments at InfoAge include the TLM-18 Radio Dish Antenna, optical telescopes, weather stations and radar displays.
The facility is open to the public, though reservations via the website are required for visitors. Special public events are offered throughout the year. ISEC offers a variety of educational activities, including our Space Week summer camp program.

Each day is divided into two 3 hour sessions of fun filled model making, rocket launching, demonstrations and games.
On the final day of Space Exploration Week everyone will learn how to move the TLM-18 Space Sentry Radio Dish Antenna and use it to explore the Milky Way Galaxy. Parents can take a video of their child at the controls! We expect to have speakers from NASA and Princeton University.
Activities are indoor and outdoor and include a visit to the Radio Technology Museum, one of the original Marconi Towers, and a trip to Mobile Radar Units.
