Space Adventures at COMO Parrot Cay

Reaching for the Stars overview

We’ve been running our Island Astronauts Camps for three years now, at COMO Maalifushi in the Maldives, COMO Point Yamu in Phuket, COMO Uma Canggu in Bali, and even a single-day pop-up in Singapore. This is the first at COMO Parrot Cay, and it has been exciting so far. The Turks and Caicos is also home to some pretty special space history: after becoming the first human to orbit the Earth in 1962, NASA astronaut John Glenn landed in his capsule spaceship off the coast of Grand Turk.

Important details from the source

• Kim Spencer, Group Play by COMO and Activities Manager explains how for children, the future can be inspired by something as simple as tasting an astronaut’s space food.
• This week, Nicole Stott, a veteran NASA astronaut and aquanaut, is hosting an Island Astronauts Camp at COMO Parrot Cay in the Turks and Caicos.
• She had a three-decade career at NASA, spent 104 days in space, including three months at the International Space Station, lived underwater for 18 days, and was the tenth woman in history to conduct a space walk.

• Over the course of this week, children have spent time with Nicole learning about space, and our role as humans in protecting our planet and improving life on Earth.
• I’ve seen time and again how these weeks unfold — while each camp is different and comes with its own unique moments, the one thing that never changes is how inspired children are by sitting right next to a real-life astronaut.
• It’s one thing to see space unfolding on television, and quite another to be told a personal anecdote by a NASA astronaut with pictures of herself on board the International Space Station, floating in zero gravity.
• She talks about the indescribable beauty of the Earth seen from above; it’s iridescence, colour and glow.
