The Passing of Steve Wall, a Long-Time Space Center Friend and Co-Designer and Builder of the First Odyssey Simulator. Be One of the First to Try Out a New Set of Starship Controls! A Summary of the June Voyager Club Meeting - An All Time Record Attendance! The Imaginarium Theater



From Facebook, by Marla Trowbridge

Steve Wall, also known as Mr. Wall or Wally, passed away on June 21st, 2026.
Steve was a science and physics teacher for many years, 1993-2016, in the Cache County School District (Official), teaching at both North and South Cache schools.
He also ran a local space simulator with his brother Dave and worked with the Christa McAuliffe Space Center in Pleasant Grove, Utah.
He was a creative and engaging teacher. More than that, he was an incredible friend who truly cared about those people whom he knew and his students.
There will be a memorial service in July, and I will let people know when that is.
                                               ____________________________________________  

Steve and his brother Dave were two of those remarkable people who magically walked through the Space Center's doors just when the need was greatest.

The year was 1991. The Space Center was bursting at the seams with eager students, and the USS Voyager alone simply wasn't enough to handle the demand. I needed another starship. While I managed to raise $25,000 for the project, I desperately lacked the specialized expertise required to design and build it.

That is when Steve and Dave walked in and completely took on the project. Everyone who ever flew on that first great Odyssey simulator owes a massive debt of gratitude to both of them.

But Steve's contributions didn't stop with construction. For several summers, he and his mighty team of Star Trek fans would travel down from Logan for our five-day overnight camps, playing multiple acting roles in full costume. They brought the simulations to life, making those years truly legendary ones for the Space Center.

To Steve:

Thank you for your kindness, dedication, and lifelong devotion to both science and science fiction. Thank you for being one of those rare, insightful educators who understood that the two are deeply intertwined.  Most of all, thank you for believing in the Space Center's mission to create a spacefaring civilization—one student at a time.  You will be missed, Admiral Wall.

Gary Gardiner Released the Beta Version of a New Simulator Control System Called Infinity Command.  Your Feedback is Requested!  

Gary Gardiner, along with his wife and associates, is the creator of Dream Flight Adventures. They have several starship simulators in the eastern half of the country and overseas (Pennsylvania, Michigan, Washington DC, and Venezuela).  Gary's controls are also extensively used at the Lions Gate Space Center at Lakeview Academy located in Saratoga Springs. 


Gary was one of those dedicated space campers who attended our summer camps at the Space Center for many years.  He grew up, married, had a family, and created a space simulator company.  Pretty impressive, right?!

Gary has a new set of controls in the testing phase called Infinity Command. He would like input from our Space EdVenturing community. He sent me the following email last week to introduce the system.    

Hi Victor,

I hope all is well in your neck of the woods. I wanted to share some news that you and fans of The Troubadour might find interesting.  Over the past several months, I've been working on a new starship simulator platform called Infinity Command.  Here's a quick 60-second video that shows it in action.

Infinity Command builds upon the Dream Flight Adventures software.  It's got the same easy-to-use interface, with better graphics, more flexibility, and it's completely free!

The Dream Flight Adventures controls are still in use in our simulator locations, so Infinity Command is more like a spin-off — and a way to give back to the Space EdVenturing community.

I just launched our public beta, and I'm hoping to get the word out so folks can start using it and seeing how it can be most useful for them.  There are lots of different simulator controls out there, so my hope with Infinity Command is to find a good way to enhance everyone's simulator experience by working alongside other tools like Thorium, etc.

Please feel free to share this around, and let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks so much

OK Space Center staff and volunteers, let's take Infinity Command out for a spin and tell me what you think.  I'll pass along your comments to Gary.  Let's help him spread the word and slowly, yet surely, Create a Space-Faring Civilization, One Student at a Time!

Mr. W. 

The Space Center's Voyager Club Holds Its June Meeting and Sets an All-Time Attendance Record

June's Voyager Club. Nearly 40 attended!

Nearly 40 people squeezed into a backup classroom yesterday, June 27, for the Space Center's June Voyager Club meeting. Our usual spot in the school faculty room was being cleaned, but the tight quarters only added to the high energy in the room!

Alex, the club's vice president, and Tyler Weight (head of the Acting Department) called a lively game of Bingo to get things off to a fun start. What better way to start an early Saturday morning than with a game of pure chance that also tested our volunteers' knowledge of numbers?

Meeting Highlights & Recognition

Alex Anderson, the club's vice president, called the meeting to order and kicked things off by asking all new Voyager Club members to come to the front. A shockwave swept through the room when a massive group stood up—these new members come from all over Utah Valley! As the head of the Space Center's volunteering force, I've been busy onboarding these outstanding individuals over the last month. They bring incredible fresh energy to our simulators, and we are lucky to have them.

The Newest Members of the Voyager Club's Volunteering Force

Next, Alex invited our "first-years" to stand. Four volunteers just reached their official one-year mark, and they were awarded their first-year-of-service pin.

Club Members Receiving their First Year of Service Lanyard Pin
Kai, Andrew, Rory, and Asher

A two-year pin was presented to Alex himself.  You can see his lanyard is getting pretty full of awards and recognitions.  

Congratulations to Alex for receiving the Two-Year Service pin. 
 

Finally, the three-year pin was awarded to Frank and Jacob.  

Congratulations to Frank and Jacob, who received the 3-Year Service Pin. 

Specialized Workshops

Following the opening activities, the group split into two focused workshops:

  • Acting 101: Tyler Weight met with the new members to cover the basics of volunteering. His course dives into characterizations, impromptu acting, costuming, costume care, and away missions.

Tyler's Walking Tour of the School and Space Center

  • Simulator Control Design: Alex Anderson took the veteran volunteers for a deep dive into the philosophy and practice of designing effective simulator controls. As the expert who programmed several iterations of the Space Center's software—including Thorium, which runs 14 starship simulators in Utah Valley—Alex compared past and present starship controls with Thorium Nova, the next-generation software currently under development.


Alex Anderson and the Simulator Controls Presentation



Both Alex and Tyler are dedicated, long-time Space Center volunteers, and I am incredibly grateful for their support on our education team.



Prizes and Looking Ahead

As always, we wrapped up the Voyager Club meeting with our monthly raffle, giving away several hundred dollars in prizes. Thanks to Amazon, everyone walked away with at least one prize: a "Home of the Free Because of the Brave" notebook and pen.

With our country's landmark 250th birthday coming up next month, these notebooks are a perfect way for our club to recognize our nation and honor the price our brave veterans paid for our freedoms.

See you all next month for July's Voyager Club meeting!

The Space Place at Renaissance Academy Opens for Summer Camps. Meet Eli, the Space Center's Newest Flight Director. All Cassini Flight Directors, Past and Present, Gather for a 30 Second Reunion - Nearly Short out the Simuator's Systems. Meet the Brains Behind Mission.io. This Week's Imaginairum Theater

Bracken Funk Giving a Mission Briefing to the Crew of the First Summer Space Camp 2026

The summer space camp season for The Space Place at Renaissance Academy kicked off on June 9, 2026, with a Day Camp.  Day Camps at the Space Place are run on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:00 - 9:00 PM.  

Bracken Funk is the director of the Space Place.  He also teaches middle school PE at Renaissance during the school year.  Renaissance Academy has two starships with only one, the USS Voyager, functioning at the moment.  The Voyager is the largest starship simulator in the network of simulators that surrounds Utah Lake.  The other starships are at the following locations:

• The Christa McAuliffe Space Center:  6 Starships

• Discovery Space Center at American Heritage School:  2 Starships

• The Lions Gate Space Center at Lakeview Academy:  4 Starships and a space station.

• Telos Academy: 1 Starship

With one starship, Day Camps at The Space Place only take 12 students per camp. Keeping the numbers low ensures every camper has a unique, hands-on experience with the ship and the storyline.

Megan Warner is Bracken's right-hand assistant.  She both flight directs and supervises the Voyager - in addition to her administrative position at The Christa McAuliffe Space Center. Megan has space on her mind most of the day :)

Henry was the other supervisor for the first camp

It was a fun camp, but of course, there were some difficulties.  The crew was on the younger side, so operating the simulator was a challenge, but they managed to pull it off in the end. With the first camp under their belt, The Space Place is ready for a great summer in space.

Meet Eli, The Space Center's Newest Flight Director


Eli is receiving his Navy Blues (FD shirt) from the Phoenix Simulator's Senior Flight Director, Jordan Smith


Eli is the latest graduate of The Space Center's Internship Program. Tabitha Ricks is the Space Center's Administrative Lead for the program. 
Tabitha wrote the following announcement in the Space Center's Discord 

Some of you may have noticed that Eli has been wearing a new shirt today. He has joined the ranks of Flight Director, and you can find him in his native environment in the Phoenix! Eli has managed this accomplishment in 8 months of training!

Because of his unique schooling schedule, he was able to train during field trips and so has a familiarity with both the Magellan and the Phoenix. It's impressive to see Eli take a first swing at an unfamiliar story thanks to his training experience. His first stab is often as polished as many an FD's third pass. Between Eli's instinct for storytelling, friendly demeanor, and love of learning, the Phoenix has gained a mighty flight director.
Well done and congratulations to Eli!!

Tabitha Ricks


Eli, the New Voice of the Starship Phoenix
 

I've personally seen Eli at work, FD training, and volunteering, but what really impresses me is how well he works with the Space Center's youngest campers, our 3 to 9-year-olds who come to the Center for our academic programs.  He is awesome with the younglings. He gets right down on their level and interacts like a real pro.

Congratulations, Eli, on your accomplishment!  

Mr. Williamson

All the Cassini's Flight Directors (Past and Present) Gather for a 30 Second Reunion

Yesterday, by some miracle of stellar alignment, fate brought all the Cassini's flight directors, both past and present, together at the Space Center for one brief moment.    


Here we all are, from left to right: Mr. Williamson, Rachel, Hyrum, Ian, Jon, and Ellie
What a great gaggle of creative brain power all crammed into that tiny space.  I'm surprised we didn't short out the Cassini's electrical systems just by standing in such close proximity to the controls!

Meet the People Behind Mission.io. The Great Casey Voeks and Skyler Carr

Skyler and Casey at Mission.io Headquarters in Provo

You've heard all about them, now you get to see them at work at Mission.io's world headquarters in Provo, Utah.  Two weeks ago, Casey was in Utah to conduct several training sessions for Utah teachers.  I caught up with both of them at the Mission.io headquarters.  We talked about old times at The Space Center and their days at Stonegate, Canyon Grove Academy, and Lakeridge Academy.  We talked about the future of Mission.io and their fantastic plans. It is soooo good to see their successes!  What we started at our little space center in Pleasant Grove has inspired many people to do great things.     

Mission.io's mission is simple: make the best immersive educational programs on the market, then world domination!  All in two simple steps, right? By the way, Casey and family are moving back to Utah in August.  Don't be surprised if you see him wandering the hallways of your nearest simulator.

A Tribute to Nolan Welch as he Leaves the Space Center for Medical School. Orion Bowers Had His "Reactivation Clause" Briefly Enforced. Admiral Porter and his Team of Breakfast Connoisseurs Forcefully Removed from Pleasant Grove's Fireman's Breakfast. Video of the First Officers' Camp. The Imaginarium Theater


Working at the Space Center has many perks, chief among them the privilege of working alongside some of Utah's finest young people. The difficult part, however, is saying goodbye when life calls, and they return planetside to pursue higher education, careers, and new horizons. 

Last week was one of those bittersweet days as we said goodbye to Nolan Welch. For well over a decade, Nolan has been a dedicated, talented, and deeply caring volunteer, supervisor, and flight director. He first walked through our doors back in the days of the old Space Center as a junior high volunteer, sticking with us all through high school. After a two-year break to serve an LDS mission, he immediately returned to the simulators and remained a fixture at the Center throughout his college years. Since then, he has married, graduated from the university, and decided to pursue a career in medicine.

Nolan with his last Space Center Crew

Nolan (left) started volunteering in June 2013.  Here he is on one of his first assignments
working a Phoenix mission.

Nolan is now heading off to medical school in Texas. While his exact medical path is still ahead of him, wherever he lands, he will undoubtedly be the kind of doctor any of us would be lucky to have. I sincerely hope his journey eventually brings him back to Utah County—because here is one geriatric patient who will gladly sign up to be first on his chart!

Nolan, Receiving his Navy Blues (Flight Director) Shirt for Odyssey Set Director Natalie Anderson



Good luck in medical school, Nolan. Thank you for your incredible years of service to the Space Center, and for the care and dedication you showed to thousands of Utah students. Perhaps, when the time is right, and you return home, you'll hear the Space Center's siren song once more and step back into the control room to fly the occasional group through the galaxy.

Wouldn't that be something? A flight director who practices medicine on the side. :)


A Short Video Tribute to Nolan, Including the Last Minutes of his Final Flight in the Odyssey.




A Special Thank you to Jon Parker and Lindsey Matus for their photos and videos.



Orion Bowers Had His "Reactivation Clause" Briefly Enforced this Week. Watch Out, All You Former Volunteers and Flight Directors!


Orion Arrived at the Space Center Uniformed and Ready for Service. "Point me to the problem, and it will be fixed!" he said enthusiastically


Everyone who retires from space service to live planetside is well aware of the Reactivation Clause in their severance contract. Even so, it can be a shock to see a subspace transmission from Admiral Porter pop up while sitting at a desk in some drafty office building in downtown Somewhere, USA.

"Soldier, you are reactivated," are the first words they hear when they answer.

Most spring into action immediately, catching the next shuttle back to Pleasant Grove. Others need a bit of time to explain the sudden departure to their civilian employers. Just saying, "Starfleet has reactivated me; I need to return to space service for a day or two," can be difficult to grasp for those unfamiliar with the Space Center and our tireless mission to keep Earth and the Federation colonies safe in these troubled times.

Orion Bowers, despite having retired to prepare for his next grand adventure, received just such a call last week and sprang into action. His old starship, the Galileo, was in desperate need of new training videos—and the Admiralty determined that only Orion possessed the specific expertise and sheer presence to get the job done right.

Thank you, Orion, for answering the call, donning the uniform once more, and for your continued support of the Space Center. You are a lifelong friend, and the Federation is safer because of you.


Orion says "Hello" to his starship, the Galileo, after a long absence


Admiral Porter and his Team of Space Center Hearty Breakfast Connoisseurs were Forcefully Removed from Pleasant Grove's Fireman's Breakfast on Saturday!

I Took This Just Before Seeing Them "Encouraged Out" of the Fireman's Breakfast


Every year, the Pleasant Grove Fire Department hosts its annual Firemen’s Breakfast—a community-building fundraiser designed to raise money for local emergency services. And every year, Admiral Porter and select hearty breakfast eaters from the Space Center arrive with a single mission objective: All-You-Can-Eat.

This past Saturday, Admiral Porter assembled a crew of the Center's elite, hearty breakfast eaters and marched them into the fire hall. It was a gesture of support for the fire department. In reality, it was an economic disaster for the fire department.

The trouble began when the firemen realized how quickly the Space Center crew was clearing out the rations. Pancakes were vanishing by the dozen, syrup disappearing by the gallons.

By hour two, the Fire Chief was crunching numbers on a calculator in the back room. The grim reality quickly set in: the Space Center crew was eating so much that they were eating into the fundraiser's profits—actively driving the fire department into debt. This wasn't a breakfast anymore; it was an unsustainable siege on the city's pancake reserves.

The breaking point—the moment that forced the hand of Pleasant Grove’s finest—happened at the central table.

A sharp-eyed paramedic noticed something suspicious with Amberlynn. Upon closer inspection, they caught her in the act of stuffing fresh, hot pancakes into a giant Ziploc bag concealed beneath the table line.

That was too much. A breach of municipal breakfast etiquette had occurred.

With video evidence in hand, the firemen moved in. There were no sirens, but the order was clear: Step away from the griddle.

The Admiral and his team were politely, firmly, and legally "encouraged" out of the fire hall for the safety of the city's quarterly budget. Escorted by a couple of smiling firefighters, the crew was marched out of the firehall. "Go look at the fire trucks and don't come back in," the fire chief said to Admiral Porter. And with that, the Admiral and anyone associated with the Space Center have been barred from the premises until summer 2027.

(In all seriousness, a huge thank you to the Pleasant Grove Fire Department for a fantastic breakfast on Saturday! We left enough food for the rest of the town... mostly.)

Video of the 2026 Summer Season's First Officer Camp!


The Space Center's first Officers' Camp was held last week. 52 campers arrived at 8:30 A.M. for the 12-hour adventure. The first part of the camp consisted of the workshops and experiences: Team Building, Diplomacy, BattleSim, and the Planetarium. The afternoon and evening portion of the camp was a long mission in one of the Center's six simulators.

A great time was had by all: The Campers, The Staff, and of course, our Wonderful Volunteers.

Meet Rachel, The Space Center's Newest Flight Director. Devin Sudweeks Returns for a Visit. Video Highlights of the First Week of Summer Space Camps. Video Highlights of the Second Annual Overnight Camp. Imaginarium Theater.

Rachel in the Cassini Control Room

Rachel has earned her Navy Blues! 

That rumble you felt last night was not the Magellan startup. It was the Space Center shaking as we had another great enter the ranks of our Cassini Flight Directors!!

Rachel with her Flight Director Navy Blues

We're already lucky to have Rachel among our supervisor ranks. Her positivity is contagious - now she's lifting up the Space Center in even more ways! Rachel has put in a lot of hard work and dedication to get her flight director pass. So the next time you see her, let her know how good she looks in navy blue!

Tabitha Ricks

Director of the Space Center's Internship Training Program

PS.  A quick addition by Mr. Williamson.  Rachel is the very definition of positivity.  I've never seen her frustrated or upset, no matter what storm may be churning in the Cassini.  She will be one of our top flight directors, and everyone will love to work with her. Congratulations Rachel!

An Old Odyssey Space Veteran Visits the Space Center

Lindsey and Devon last Week


Devin Sudweeks was an Odyssey flight director in the early 2000's.  In fact, he flew one of the originial Odyssey's last missions in July 2012, just before the simulator was demolished

Devon in July 2012

He wasn't restricted to just one simulator.  

Devon in the Galileo back in the day

Devon was with us for many, many years before life called, and he left the Space Service and went planetside for school.  Today, Devon lives in New York and is earning a PhD in linguistics, with an emphasis on ancient languages, if I remember correctly.  

Devon's family lives in Utah, so he makes appearances in the state from time to time. And when he is in town, he likes to visit his old buddies still serving in the Space Service.  Lindsey is one of those old buddies.  In fact, Devon was Lindsey's flight director trainer.  Lindsey invited Devon to come to one of the afternoon Day Camp missions to work with her.  It was awesome to see him again.  Thanks for stopping by, Devon.  We love to see our old staff and volunteers when they are in town. 

The First Week of Summer Space Camps at the Space Center  

Here is a short video highlighting the first week of summer space camps at the Space Center.  We have several more weeks to come. Thank you, Staff and Volunteers, for the time and effort you put into the summer camps. Your work will bring a lot of joy to hundreds of Utah children and teens.  



The Second Annual Overnight Camp at the Space Center (adult staff only)

The tradition of overnight camps at the Space Center isn't a finished chapter in its history.  Mr. Porter brought back overnights last year with the adult staff only, as part of an annual overnight mission program.  Adults aged 18 and older are eligible to participate as part of a full team of adult staff, crew, and volunteers.  Mr. Porter spent much of his teen years attending overnight camps at the Space Center and wanted to give today's adult staff and volunteers the opportunity to experience what one of those graveyard-shift overnights was like.
This year's overnight mission was held in the Odyssey.  Matt Ricks retrograded the Odyssey to the controls last used many, many years ago.  It took a lot of time, but well worth the fun.  Tabitha Ricks, Natalie Anderson, Lindsey Matus, Dave Stevens, Connor Larsen, Matt Ricks, and Mr. Porter made up the staff.  
Enjoy this short video highlighting this year's Overnight Camp.

Honor's Night, May 28, 20026. The May Voyager Club Meeting. Imaginarium Theater

James Porter Welcomes Everyone to Honor's Night

On Thursday night, the Space Center gathered in the planetarium for our biannual Honors Night—a special tradition dedicated to celebrating a school year's worth of extraordinary accomplishments. Our staff and volunteers are the heartbeat of the center; they are the people who make the magic happen, expanding minds and inspiring visitors to look up at the universe and dream big.

We gathered to honor those who have masterfully honed their storytelling craft, pushed the boundaries of their technical skills in the simulators, and dedicated significant hours and years of service to our mission. More importantly, Honors Night gave us a chance to celebrate one another, celebrate our shared victories, and strengthen the bonds of camaraderie that will carry us into our busiest season yet: summer space camp.  

James Porter, Space Center Director, opened the event by welcoming staff, volunteers, and families to the planetarium.  He went over several housekeeping items regarding the summer camp schedule, locker use, appearance, and cleanliness... If you've attended past Honor's Nights, you are familiar with the "Necessaries," as I call them.

The Staff Meeting to Get Ready and Pumped Up for the Summer Camp Season

The Space Center Staff

The staff meeting for the summer camp season launch was held immediately following Honor's Night on Thursday evening.  The staff gathered outside the planetarium for a staff photo.  The old saying, "A picture is worth a thousand words," couldn't be truer when you look at this photo.  Look at those good-looking, energetic, enthusiastic employees ready to receive counsel and instructions from their fearless leader, the Grand Visionary himself, Mr. James Porter.

James Porter recorded individual videos for every member of the staff, thanking each for their contributions towards the Space Center. James is a director who shows appreciation, gives guidance, and leads by example - always.  

The May Voyager Club Meeting    

Saturday morning, right at the stroke of 8:00 A.M., the Space Center's Voyager Club (the volunteer organization) met for their monthly Bingo game, training meeting, astronomy, and space science lesson, and raffle.  

Alex J called the Bingo with the assistance of Tyler Weight, the Club's 
Acting Department Head.

As always, many won, many lost, and a few won over and over again.  I've got to figure out how they choose which bingo card to take from the stack.  "Do the cards speak to you?" I asked one volunteer who won multiple times.  If so, I was going to tap him for a few winning lottery numbers for the next big Powerball.

Club Presidents Eavie and Alex introduced the Club's newest 
members

New club members were introduced.  These new inductees will make excellent volunteers.  They are ready to hit the volunteering road with gusto!

Jason Trump on the great Pluto Planetary Debate
Should it, or shouldn't it?

Jason Trump is both the Voyager Club's astronomy and space science teacher and the director of education at Clark Planetarium. He delivered a thought-provoking, passion-sparking lesson on what happened to Pluto's planetary status and whether it should be restored as the solar system's 9th planet.  


I had no idea that the topic would spark the fierce debate it did within the club's members.  Once again, it highlighted the duality of our members: lovers of science fiction and real space science.  These are people who've found the perfect home at the Space Center.  


The final part of every monthly meeting is the raffle.  Several gift cards from Amazon, Smith's, and Swig, along with a blanket, planetarium tickets, a Bluetooth speaker, a keyboard with wrist support, t-shirts, and 2026 Soccer World Cup banners and posters, were raffled.  The meeting ended at 10:00 A.M.
