Space Ride
Bike tour of Pasadena's history and contributions in space exploration, astronomy, and astrophysics

About this Event

Join us for a bike ride to learn about space exploration, astronomy, and astrophysics! The ride features four Pasadena institutions that have made significant contributions to science and space exploration. We will stop at Caltech, The Planetary Society, the Carnegie Science Observatories, and an overlook of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Each destination will feature a talk about the institution and the contributions made there.


Meet at Caltech’s Bechtel Mall north of the Seeley W. Mudd Laboratory of the Geological Sciences (see pin on map) at 10 am. We encourage you to ride to the event start location. If you are driving to the event you can park along Wilson Ave or at Caltech’s South Wilson Parking structure.


The ride is about 14 miles with 500-600 ft of elevation. This is a family-friendly event. Kids are welcome as long as they can ride a bike without training wheels and maintain a social pace around 10 MPH. No one will be dropped.


This event is free for all participants. RSVP's are required as we need a good head-count and space is limited. All participants should bring a bike in good working order (e-bikes are welcome).
