One small step today.
One giant leap in learning outcomes.

Put learners inside the story.

Starlab is a portable, immersive learning dome that brings science to life. Instead of asking learners to imagine the solar system, a weather event, or the surface of a planet, it gives them a place to explore it together.

For your organization, that can mean a more memorable classroom experience, a family night people talk about afterward, a fresh camp activity, or an outreach program that brings science to a school or community space.

Starlab brings people into the experience. Mission Control gives your team the content, guidance, and training to bring them back with something new.

One web-based platform for making Starlab a living part of your organization.

Your audience arrives ready to be surprised. The lights dim. The room gets quiet. A story unfolds overhead, and questions begin to surface.

Your team needs fresh content, less prep work, and more facilitators who feel ready to lead if you want that experience to appear on the calendar more often.

We built Mission Control so the wonder that begins inside the dome can reach farther, last longer, and belong to more people across your organization.

Mission Control is a paid add-on that expands what your Starlab team can lead.

Every Starlab includes the dome, projection system, and immersive curriculum. Mission Control adds a growing library of content, guided delivery tools, and training for your team.

What Mission Control Helps You Achieve

Give learners a reason to return.

Fresh NGSS-aligned lessons regularly added, full-dome films, and expansion into new topics give your team more ways to explore the questions that bring learners back.

Anyone can be a Starlab instructor.

One-click video lessons, guided scripts, and on-demand training build confidence for anyone on your team to lead a Starlab session. No astronomers needed!

Carry curiosity beyond the dome.

Worksheets and lesson planning help learners take the experience into the classroom, exhibit conversations, community nights, and take-home exploration.

Building for the next wave of outreach.

At the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, they bring Starlab programs to their community.

“There’s so much more that you can do with it, and that’s something that we’re excited to do with Mission Control. We’ve been able to test it, and it’s been really fun. I’m excited for more iterations and to see what more we can do with it, especially for STEM nights and school festivals. When you’re trying to get a lot of parents and teachers and people in the dome, having that one-click lesson is going to be really cool.”
