The Summer Science Program (SSP) is an academic summer program where high school students experience college-level education and do research in celestial mechanics by studying the orbits of asteroids. The program was established in 1959 at The Thacher School in Ojai California and now takes place at two locations: New Mexico Tech in Socorro New Mexico and Westmont College in Santa Barbara California (northwest of Los Angeles).
