Located on the campus of West Kentucky Community and Technical College, the Challenger Learning Center is the result of a partnership between Paducah Junior College, Inc. and WKCTC. The Paducah center officially opened on August 16, 2022, and is part of the global Challenger Center network founded in 1986 to honor the crew lost on January 28, 1986 during the launch of the Challenger space shuttle. The center has a simulator that includes a Spacecraft and Mission Control allowing students and adults to fly to the moon, Mars or in search of comets.
Gifts to the Challenger Learning Center are tax deductible.
