The Christmas Star
At Christmas Time, the story of how three wisemen travelled from the East to Bethlehem by following a star has become a treasured symbol for reverence and wonder.
As science examines the story of the Christmas Star we uncover fascinating evidence for what might have actually been the cause of a Christmas Star.
Was there a celestial event 2000 years ago that could have been the Christmas Star? What does science say is possible?
Learn about Stars and Pulsars as we use the TLM 18 Space Sentry Dish Antenna. With Radio Astronomy we will look at a pulsar whose light left over 2000 years ago and is today at a distance of approximately 2000 light years from our Earth.
After the talk, Children can make their own
Christmas Star to take home!

Space Exploration Week is a five day space science program for children ages 11- 14 about The Earth, The Solar System, The Galaxy, The Universe, Rocketry, and Outer Space Observation and Exploration. 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 TLM18 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 InfoAge Radio Museum, The Original Marconi Tower and a trip to Mobile Radar Units.
Learn about the history of NASA’s Space Programs and the exciting events that took place right here at the Diana Site in Wall Township that launched Space Exploration.
Travel through Space using the TLM18 Radio Dish Antenna to send your voice to the moon and hear it bounce back in 2.5 seconds!
