About
Supercharged Science
We create fun and hands-on experiments for kids that get them excited about learning science.
Our lessons are taught by a real rocket scientist (Aurora Lipper), who has worked for NASA, taught at California Polytechnic University, is a pilot, astronomer AND a mom.
We believe in hands-on real science, so your kids are actually doing experiments and activities – not just reading about them.
The activities and experiments use inexpensive easy-to-get materials and the programs guide your kids so you don’t have to.
Founded in 1999
Our Staff
Aurora Lipper / Instructor
Aurora Lipper here. I am a mechanical engineer, university instructor, pilot, astronomer, and busy mom of four. I have taught science classes and workshops to over ten thousand kids since 1999.
I started teaching Mechanical Engineering at Cal Poly State University at 21 (I graduated early!), and then started volunteering my time teaching in local high and jr high schools. I had also worked for NASA when I was 17 in addition to being a pilot, and all these things combined catapulted me into a life-long career in education and sharing my love for learning and science with others.
I teach in a unique and totally fun way by having students focus on wonder, discovery, and exploration. My classes exceed state and national standards, STEM requirements, and are engaging, fun, and totally hands-on.
My online school has won many awards: Top 100 Sites for Homeschoolers by Homeschool.com, Blue Ribbon Award by Old Schoolhouse Magazine, Top 101 Pick from Cathy Duffy… and so many more!
Myself, I won all kinds of awards when I was in school for mathematics and science. But I think the best awards I have ever received are the smiles I see on the faces of the students and parents when they get their a-HA! moments.
I have a Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Mathematics and a specialized study in High Temperature Gas Dynamics during my PhD work at Stanford.
