Virginia Space Grant Consortium’s Post

Every year, my team (Brandon Rodriguez, Kim Orr, Ota Lutz) and I put together the NASA Pi Day Challenge. It's a great way to see how NASA uses pi to explore space and try out your math skills. The latest set of questions is here! https://lnkd.in/gicC8eTx (teachers, you can visit the lesson guides from this page too)

AMARILLO, Texas(KAMR/KCIT) —As we prepare for the Total Solar Eclipse, why not dive into the world of Space and #STEM. The Stomp Rocket has been around for decades, and now you can buy The Original Stomp Rocket NASA Collection. It features three spacecraft and the launcher. The three spacecraft in the set include the Saturn V Rocket, Space Shuttle Atlantis and Space Launch System (SLS). Each rocket-launching toy is based on STEM concepts of science, technology, engineering and math, encouraging curious kids to challenge themselves through play. #STEMAuthenticated 🔐 https://lnkd.in/g6f7Dh_6

The slides from my NASA talk earlier today are available here: https://lnkd.in/gUNgsYWV This was a high-level presentation. All the details are in the book, and section numbers are noted on the slides: https://lnkd.in/gnGUsFjM

Following the April publication of my piece “Taking Aristotle to the Moon and Beyond,” the quarterly journal Issues in Science and technology, a joint publication of the US National Academy of Sciences and Arizona State University, is hosting a panel discussion on June 6, 2:30 Eastern Time, to discuss how philosophy can help NASA consider humanity’s future in space and develop its vision for exploring the cosmos. Watch and let me know what you think I got right and where I missed the mark. https://lnkd.in/eSytm6NP

The black women of NASA, every one of them, are pioneers I desire to hear more from. What were their lessons learned? What mistakes were the most painful mistakes and what can we do to avoid them? Who inspired them? What did they do to rise above the criticisms, judgments, and roadblocks certain personalities tried to create to limit them? To know how to get to where we want to go we have to know what we do not like. Model-based Problem Solving involves knowing what we do not like to find the pathway toward where we want to be. https://lnkd.in/gNjKxpKm

🚀 Historic milestones ahead with tomorrow’s NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration #Crew9 launch! 🚀 This marks three groundbreaking moments in space history: 1️⃣ The first crewed mission to launch from Space Launch Complex 40. 2️⃣ The first U.S. Space Force Guardian to launch into space. 3️⃣ The first Guardian to launch from the first re-designated Space Force installation.
