About RocketWatch Kids
Making space exploration fun, educational, and accessible for families everywhere
Our Story
RocketWatch Kids was born from a simple moment: watching rocket launches with my four boys and seeing their eyes light up with wonder and curiosity about space.
As a homeschooling dad, I wanted to find ways to make space exploration more engaging and educational for my kids. But I couldn't find a single platform that combined real-time launch tracking, kid-friendly content, and interactive learning in one place.
So I built it myself. What started as a project for my own family has grown into a platform that thousands of families, classrooms, and young space enthusiasts use to explore the cosmos together.
Every feature on this site was designed with real kids in mind—because I test everything with my toughest critics: my four boys!
