Applications Still Open For DreamUp To Space Launch Team

Can you imagine being part of a team that sends an experiment to Space?
Apply to Join a DreamUp to Space Launch Team!
All 4th-12th grade learners are invited to join one of two DreamUp to Space Launch Teams, featuring experiments designed by learners from the DreamUp to Space Mission 2021.
Selected team members will run trials in preparation for the actual experiments that will launch to space to be run by astronauts on the International Space Station with a target date of April 2022.
Team members will collaborate with facilitators and mentors at each stage. They’ll also be involved in promoting their mission – including creating videos and writing blogs. They’ll fundraise for experiment-related expenses, as well as the chance to travel with their families to Kennedy Space Center where they could present their experiment and watch it blast to space!
Watch our DreamUp to Space Launch Teams’ videos to understand more about the experiments:
