In partnership with Boeing on its 100-year anniversary, the Witte Museum is taking off with science, technology, engineering and math education.

A super STEM weekend will run Saturday from noon to 4 p.m. and Sunday from 1-5 p.m.

“Sparking an interest in the wonder of aerospace at an early age is a priority for Boeing, and the
'Above and Beyond' exhibition provides future engineers, pilots or astronauts with an interactive
glimpse into how they can achieve their dreams and inspires them to pursue careers in science and technology,” said Greg Hyslop, Boeing chief technology officer.

The "Above and Beyond" mission starts Saturday and lasts through May 7.
