Journey to Mars: Rocketry Educator Professional Development Workshop
NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center Educator Professional Development Specialist Dr. Barbie Buckner hosted an educator workshop to celebrate the start of the One Year Crew and our eventual Journey to Mars. Nineteen educators learned about the One Year Crew, the static test-firing of the 5 segment SLS booster rocket by Orbital ATK and Journey to Mars. Educators participated in hands-on, standards-aligned mathematics, science and engineering activities and interactive multimedia which they could take back to their classrooms while making real world connections with NASA rocketry.
