NASA Astronauts to Answer Florida Students' Questions From the Space Station on Nov. 10
Students in St. Johns, St. Johns County, Florida, will hear from NASA astronauts aboard the International Space Station. NASA announced on November 5 that astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney will answer prerecorded STEM questions while aboard the station.
The Earth-to-space call will begin at 10:40 a.m. EST on Tuesday, Nov. 10, and will stream live on the agency's Learn With NASA YouTube channel. The event is hosted by Freedom Crossing Academy in St. Johns for students in grades K-12 and the community, and aims to deepen understanding of space exploration and enhance awareness of STEM careers.
For more than 26 years, people have lived and worked continuously aboard the International Space Station, advancing scientific knowledge and research breakthroughs not possible on Earth. NASA says the station helps it understand and overcome the challenges of human spaceflight, expand commercial opportunities in low Earth orbit, and build the foundation for long-duration missions to the Moon under the Artemis program and on to Mars.
Media interested in covering the event must RSVP no later than 5 p.m. EST on Monday, Nov. 9, to Christina Upchurch at the host school. (Source: NASA)
