CC 40th Anniversary

As a leader in experiential STEM education, Challenger Center and its network of Challenger Learning Centers bring science, math, technology, engineering, and exploration to life in ways that inspire students to imagine new possibilities for their future.

Buehler Challenger & Science Center is part of a global network that engages hundreds of thousands of students each year. Following the Challenger STS-51L tragedy, the crew’s families established Challenger Center in 1986 to honor their loved ones and carry forward their education mission.

Now celebrating its 40th anniversary, Challenger Center continues to inspire students and launch the next generation of explorers and innovators. Learn more at www.challenger.org.
