Our Mission: To provide hands-on scientific education in harmony with the ecosystem and Native American culture.
Our Vision: BCSCO will operate as a premier natural and physical sciences educational and research facility to attract students, scholars and tourists to the region.
Come for the Stars, stay for the Science. Our astronomy and science Mini-Classes and Seminars are designed to convey why science matters; to ignite flames of curiosity; to stimulate an interest in the STEM fields; to have fun making discoveries along the way; to create an attitude of "Wow! I've got to find out more about this!"
