Clementoni Science & Play: NASA Mars Exploration (NASA Exploration sur Mars)

Launch your child’s imagination into deep space with the Clementoni Science & Play: NASA Mars Exploration (NASA Exploration sur Mars) kit. Officially licensed by NASA, this premium STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) kit lets young space enthusiasts build their very own Martian colony and simulated research base. This futuristic kit combines engineering, botany, and planetary science. Children will assemble a modular space station and build an exploration rover. Once their base is established, they can step into the boots of a real astronaut: cultivating real plants in the specialized botany module, examining local soil samples using the rover, and testing reactions inside the lab. Assisted by a richly illustrated French instruction manual, kids will learn about actual NASA Mars missions, astronaut training, and the challenges of sustaining life on the Red Planet.
