Honoring Heroes and Inspiring Children

The Lancaster Science Factory honors heroes and pioneers in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics by inducting them into our Hall of Heroes.

The Lancaster Science Factory believes that children should be able to see themselves reflected in the STEM pioneers they learn about when they visit. For that reason, we honor these men and women in hopes that our visitors will be inspired by their achievements.
