The South Australian Space School (SASS) held its first sessions back in 1997.  We have selected images from the schools to highlight these times.  If you are a past graduate and have images you would like included, please contact us!

The National Space Camp is an extension for SASS graduates.  This has included opportunities for graduates to visit Woomera Rocket Range in outback South Australia, Canberra (including deep space tracking stations and Mount Stromlo Observatory) and Victorian Space Science Education Centre (Mission to Mars).

In 2018 SASS had its 21st space school - yes that's 20 years...
