Contest | It's Time to Show Your Kid's Creativity - NASA Commercial Crew Children’s Artwork Contest

Updated: Oct 1, 2023



The NASA Commercial Crew Children’s Artwork Contest 2024 ends in October!


Every year, 4-12 years old kids from all over the world submitted over 2000 entries, which were judged on originality and composition. A total of 36 entrants were selected first, second, or third place winners in each theme and age category.


Theme:

  1. ROCKETS AND SPACECRAFT Commercial crew has launched a new app! Select your partner, mission, and crew. Then put your skills to the test as you launch and dock with the International Space Station.

  2. LIVING AND WORKING IN SPACE Living in space is not the same as living on Earth. What are the astronauts doing on the International Space Station? They work, eat, sleep and exercise to stay healthy, just like we do on Earth, but microgravity makes things a little more interesting.

  3. EXPLORING THE SOLAR SYSTEM Our solar system is located in the vast Milky Way Galaxy. It consists of the Sun (our star) and everything that orbits around it, including the eight planets and their natural satellites (like our Moon), dwarf planets, asteroids and comets. More than 300 robotic spacecraft have explored destinations beyond Earth’s orbit, including 24 astronauts who orbited the Moon, helping us learn how we can safely explore deep space and make exciting discoveries.

  4. ASTRONAUTS NASA astronauts are flying once again from U.S. soil –this time, on a commercial spacecraft.


Age Groups:

First, second, and third place winners for each theme will be selected in each of these age groups:

  • 4-6 year old
