STEM Nova Awards
The STEM Nova Awards program was developed to excite and expand a sense of wonder in our Scouts. By working with an adult Counselor or Mentor, the various modules allow them to explore the basic principles of STEM and discover how fun and fascinating STEM can be. The Supernova awards are offered for those who enjoy a super challenge. Discover how the STEM Nova Awards program helps youth be “Prepared. For Life.”

Cub Scout Constellation Award (Lion-Tiger)
Cub Scout Nova Awards may only be earned by Scouts who are Wolf rank through AOL rank. Although Scouts in the Lion and Tiger dens enthusiastically participate in pack activities and programs, they are currently ineligible for any STEM-related recognition. Silver Comet recognizes the importance of introducing foundational concepts in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics to our youngest Scouts as well, through engaging and playful activities.

With that, we are proud to announce to Silver Comet Constellation Award, which is now available for Lion and Tiger Scouts ONLY. Although technically not a Nova award, the Constellation Award must still be approved and recorded by a district Nova Counselor.
Lion and Tiger Scouts who successfully complete all award requirements and submit a completed application signed by their Nova Counselor will earn the coveted NEW Constellation Award patch!
