Soar Together at Air and Space is a monthly family-focused program from the National Air and Space Museum. By engaging in these activities and experiences, families can imagine their own futures by sharing in the stories of innovators and explorers from diverse backgrounds who challenged conventions and changed the world. Each month we will focus on a different theme. 

Soar Together family days take place both in person and online. In addition to events at our Museum in DC or Udvar-Hazy Center in Virginia, Soar Together activities are available online for families to participate in, no matter where they live. Activities include scavenger hunts, videos, and hands-on demonstrations learners of all ages can do at home.

New: What Makes a Place Livable?

Compared to other planets in our solar system, Earth is not too hot and not too cold.

It's just the right distance from the Sun for animals, plants and humans to live.

Because it's not too hot, Earth has liquid water on its surface, which is important for all living things.
