The National Science Center (NSC), located in Augusta, Georgia, takes Science on the road with its Mobile Discovery Centers. Housed in 18 wheelers, the mobile centers travel across the country, presenting programs designed to show young people that studying science and math is fun as well as essential to their future. The complete program presented during a van visit consists of fun, hands-on, interactive science demonstrations. Educational outreach is the mission of the National Science Center and The Mobile Discovery Centers play a key role in the accomplishment of this mission by taking our programs to schools across the nation.

Designed by the National Science Center and staffed by U.S.Army soldiers and Department of Army civilian personnel, Mobile Centers are capable of multiple uses. They are mobile classrooms providing training for students and teachers and mobile, walk-through exhibit halls showcasing small interactive exhibits and displays. The science demonstrations are fun and exciting for both students and teachers.
