EEP/Planetarium
EEPs and Planetariums are the two educational ventures of the OCESS, and are dedicated to teaching other students about Space, Space Science, and Space Exploration.
The EEP/Planetarium Educational Consortium is the principal source of revenue for the OCESS, and one of the most important parts of fufilling our mission statement.
