Yes, it's summer and who will read this? One never knows. Just it case you are reading this, did you see the shuttle launch Weds. evening? I of course missed it, even though I wrote it on my calendar. Thanks to my son in law, Mark, who did watch it on NASA TV, I was reminded that it's not to late to get involved, thus the post. This is a historic mission because teacher Barbara Morgan, who was the alternate for Christa McAuliffe, is among the crew. Finally, after twenty-one years, there is a teacher in space. Of course, NASA has provided a page of online educator resources related to the mission.
If you want to get involved you can sign up for a hour session with NASA educators at set times. It costs $25. Come on guys this is an opportunity you don't get everyday. You can even purchase seeds from the plants on the space station. The sessions end August 17 and you have to sign up 3 days before a session. Please check it out!
