The Rocket Scientists is a group of kids and adults in the Edmonton area dedicated to the experiential exploration of science, mathematics, and engineering. Our aim is to nurture science literacy by inspiring curious minds of all ages to explore the amazing world of science, engineering and mathematics. We conduct experiential research in a wide range of fields, from kitchen counter chemistry, kitchen table dissections, sidewalk astronomy, inventing and engineering contraptions, basement biology involving experiments with animals and, yes, we also build, launch and crash the occasional rocket. We also do more outdoorsy explorations, e.g. geocaching, hiking, birding, fossil and meteorite hunting, entomology, and mountaineering.
