[Video] Astronauts Aboard the Space Station Answer Florida Students' Science Questions
NASA announced on November 5 that astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, working aboard the International Space Station, would connect with Freedom Crossing Academy in St. Johns, Florida, to answer questions prerecorded by the school's students.
The call was aimed at students from kindergarten through high school and the surrounding community, with questions centered on science, technology, engineering and mathematics. NASA's event notice listed the call as beginning at 10:40 a.m. EST on Tuesday, November 10; the video released afterward lists the interview at 11:10 a.m. ET that day.
NASA says downlinks like this are part of its education work: students get to ask orbiting astronauts directly about life in space and how science experiments are run, and the agency hopes the exchanges spark more interest in science and engineering.
