Pennsylvania, Texas Students to Hear from Astronauts on Space Station #Space #STEM

Earth-to-space calls that aren’t just from Houston. Tune in on Wednesday, May 26!

Via NASA:

On Tuesday, May 25, NASA astronaut Megan McArthur and ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Thomas Pesquet will answer prerecorded video questions starting at 10:10 a.m. EDT from students at more than 10 school districts and independent schools in Chester and Berks counties, in Pennsylvania. Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, who represents the area in Congress, will share prerecorded opening and closing remarks.

“As a self-proclaimed space geek, I couldn’t be more excited for our upcoming event with NASA astronauts up in the International Space Station,” Houlahan said. “When I was younger, I wanted to be like Sally Ride, the first American woman in space. She broke so many barriers and serves as an important reminder that you can’t be what you can’t see. I’m so grateful that students in our community will get to ask these incredible astronauts a number of questions and learn about the wonder of space and the importance of STEM education.”
