Travelling Exhibitions Program
The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) Travelling Exhibitions Program is a critical undertaking in the CSA’s national awareness and learning initiatives. It reaches out to Canadians in their own communities to raise awareness among youth to pursue studies in the sciences, engineering and technology sectors.
The CSA Travelling Exhibits Program is offered at no cost and on a turnkey basis to Canadian museums, science centres and cities with all related costs (transport, assembly and disassembly) defrayed by the Canadian Space Agency.
However, it is the exhibitor’s responsibility to protect the exhibit from any risk of damage while it is in the exhibitor’s possession and under its control. The exhibitor shall provide evidence satisfactory to the CSA of such insurance coverage.
No additional fees may be charged for public access to the exhibits. Access for disabled persons must be provided. The exhibits are to be presented by the hosting sites for a period of two or three months or, occasionally, for an extended period.
The host establishment must provide a floor plan before reserving the exhibit. Please contact the CSA for further information and to reserve the exhibit.

Living in Space
Be part of the adventure and learn how to adapt to the rigours of daily life in space for months at a time on board the International Space Station (ISS). Discover how astronauts in the weightless environment work, entertain themselves and tackle such basics as personal hygiene, eating and sleeping among the stars. Become inspired by the engineering of this space station that sustains life and Canadian scientific experiments that reap a myriad of benefits.
Canada's Stellar Space Achievements
Voyage through Canadian space history, from the Black Brant rocket to the Mobile Servicing System on the International Space Station. Breathtaking footage in these vignettes will launch your exploration of Canada's greatest space successes. Orbit with the astronauts. Watch Canadian know-how at work in space missions, cutting-edge science, and advanced space hardware design.
* Please note: Canada’s Stellar Space Achievements will not be available beyond May 2012.
The Conquest of Space in Images
The space age began with the launch of Sputnik. Since then, man has walked on the Moon, robots have stirred the soil on Mars, and probes have scanned the farthest reaches of the Universe. Russia, America, Europe, and Canada embarked on an amazing space adventure.
