DreamUp to Space
Through our partnership with iLEAD California and iLEAD Student Aerospace Projects, learners, facilitators, staff, and families from iLEAD Exploration are celebrating the learning that happens when we challenge learners with this question: “If you could send an experiment to the International Space Station, what experiment would you design?”
iLEAD Exploration learners are invited to participate in the DreamUp to Space Experiment Design Challenge. Their mission is to learn the fundamentals of space exploration, including microgravity, scientific experimentation, and proposal writing.
In partnership with DreamUp, learners are empowered to develop the skills to design, develop, and propose an experiment that could be run on the International Space Station.
Support our 2024-25 DreamUp Launch Team!
Dear iLEAD Exploration Families, Staff, and Supporters,
We are thrilled to share some incredible news! Two teams of our very own learners have been selected to send their science experiments to the International Space Station!
To celebrate this amazing achievement, we want to be sure our DreamUp Launch Teams have the opportunity to attend a two-day space conference at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This trip will be an unforgettable experience, allowing our very own learners to see firsthand the real-world application of their scientific curiosity and hard work.
We need your help to make this dream a reality!
We are raising funds to cover the cost of travel, accommodation, and activities. Any amount you can contribute will make a significant difference.
Donate here to support our 4th-7th Grade DreamUp Launch Team Pleurotus eryngii (King Trumpet Mushroom Mycelium): Matthew F. Martin D. Madison P. Lulu B. Angelina V.
Donate here to support our 8th-12th Grade DreamUp Launch Team Armadillidium vulgare (Pill Bugs): Capri Y., Grayson Y., Ryder Y., Evelyn M. V., Teagan K., and William T.
Every donation, big or small, will bring us closer to our goal and provide these young scientists with a valuable experience that will inspire them for years to come.
Thank you for your support! Let’s show our learners how proud we are of their hard work and dedication to learn and grow!
Sincerely,
The iLEAD Exploration Team
