Our understanding of all dinosaurs has changed over time, from the way they walk to what certain fossils really are! Unravel the puzzle of hadrosaurs and take a journey to discover how we’ve transformed our understanding of these unique creatures.

Humans are one of the few animals adapted to life on only two feet. Investigate the structures in our body that make this possible, the first time that these features appeared in the fossil record, and the role this played in our evolution.

Get a taste of hands-on learning in this introductory camp. Over four half-days, you will talk to an astronaut, follow in the footsteps of dinosaurs, trek through a rainforest, and prepare for a celebration as a child of the Haida Gwaii nation.

What do we know about our neighboring planets or stars millions of light years away? Join us as we fly through a digital simulation of the universe, and investigate nearby moons, planets, and stars.

The global ocean creates a home for an incredible amount of life–but it also a laboratory for robotics, unexpected discoveries, and climate change. Cast off to explore current research that is being done in the ocean and try your hand at building some vehicles to ask a question of your very own.

Journey to the depths of the ocean and you will find zones that look like different worlds. Explore the edge of ocean science and some of the new tools that scientists are developing to access areas and animals that were previously beyond our reach.

The laboratory of the astrophysicist is always in flux-- it is made up of all of the exploding, moving, and emerging matter in the depths of space. Explore how astronomers gather information about stars and worlds light-years away and what that tells us about the structure of the universe.

Stegosaurus, Oviraptor, or Tyrannosaurus rex—which is your favorite? Get up close with real dinosaur fossils, learn how dinosaurs walked and what they ate, and immerse yourself in the diversity of these prehistoric animals.

What is the secret to our success as a species? Explore clues left behind by prehistoric hominins and investigate how their early adaptations affected their survival. Together we’ll decipher the differences between our species and our extinct relatives.

Earthquakes, volcanoes, and more - watch out! Have you ever wondered what causes natural disasters? Learn more about the forces of nature and how people around the world continuously cope with their dangers and aftermath.

Absolutely everything you know about the world comes from your senses. Take a closer look, smell, and listen to the way you perceive your surroundings and uncover the special ways humans put the information all together.

Each of our senses gather information about the world around us–but the human brain creates a unique experience from that information that no other animal can match (as far as we know!). Explore the ways humans perceive the world and how we differ from the rest of the animal kingdom

Do you have what it takes to be an archaeologist or a physical anthropologist? Find out as you explore a simulated archaeological dig site and delve into what makes you different from your distant Neanderthal cousins.

Contrary to popular belief, dinosaurs continue to thrive all around us! Learn how modern birds are actually dinosaurs by examining real fossils and exploring the evolutionary track of this diverse, highly adaptive group of animals.

Liquid water isn’t the only reason why Earth can support life—from the metallic core to the edge of the sky, our planet’s features and processes maintain the beautiful, and only, place we call home. Explore the sometimes invisible features that let us thrive and what it would take to live on other planets.
