Chabot Space & Science Center (CSSC) is an innovative teaching and learning center focusing on astronomy and the space sciences and the interrelationships of all sciences. Its observatory, planetarium, exhibits, and natural park setting are a place where a diverse population of students, teachers, and the public can imagine, understand, and learn to shape their future through science.

The Chabot Space & Science Center addresses the critical issue of broad access to the specialized information and facilities needed to improve K-12 science education and public science literacy. Chabot continues to offer inquiry-based student programs, which correlate to state and national science education standards, and will expand and develop new programs for students, teachers, and the general public. With the resources available at the new facility, Chabot provides the following three types of programs on-site and online:

Student Programs: Innovative and effective on-site and outreach K-12 programs will serve over 50,000 school children annually.
Teacher Programs: Up to 2,000 K-12 teachers annually can take part in professional development programs, who in turn reach up to 60,000 Bay Area students each year.
Public Programs: More than 200,000 yearly visitors have access to an array of science and technology educational experiences, including classes, lectures, shows and interactive exhibits.

 

Days Closed: Mondays, some Holidays
