Craving more space?
🚀 AstroDay 2025 is landing at Prince Kūhiō Plaza in Hilo for its 23rd orbit around the Sun! Hosted by Maunakea Observatories, this FREE ʻohana-friendly science celebration is blasting off on Saturday, May 3 from 10a-4p with out-of-this-world activities for all ages.
✨ Think hands-on science experiments, dazzling demos, interactive games, giveaways, and more STEM-packed fun than you can point a telescope at.
🎟️ As you explore, collect AstroDay coins at activity stations to enter prize drawings — telescopes, skateboards, and cosmic bragging rights await!
🤖 Don’t miss the Robot Rumble hosted by @HawaiiScienceMuseum where 15 high school robotic teams from around the island will battle it out for robo-glory. (Spoiler: only one bot can be left standing.)
🎨 Creative flair meets cosmic competition at 10am when we reveal the winners of the Maunakea Coin Contest, showcasing stellar student designs on our 2025 collector coins and event t-shirts.
