🌌 We visited the IfA Open House! 🚀 at Institute for Astronomy @uh_ifa @hawaiispacegrant This was a free community event hosted by UH Institute for Astronomy, and it was amazing ✨ 🚀 Rocket launches ❄️ Liquid nitrogen ice cream tasting ✂️ Hands-on crafts There were so many fun, hands-on activities where kids could learn by doing. ✨ 30+ interactive stations ✨ Planetariums & family-friendly talks ✨ A great opportunity to experience science up close At MIRAI HANA, we’re always looking for experiences like this to share with our community 💛 And we were so happy to see some of our regular MIRAI HANA participants there! We love seeing our families enjoying events like this in the community. 🌱 Learning doesn’t only happen in classrooms. It happens through real experiences. Mahalo to the UH Institute for Astronomy team for creating such a special day ✨ ⸻ 📍 UH Institute for Astronomy 🗓 11am–4pm / Free event
