Many students gathered in the L.A. Morgan Elementary School’s library to learn about NASA’s space program and to ask questions that could be answered by astronauts on the final space shuttle mission. It was one of the four schools in Galveston that participated in the project as part of the NASA Office of Education’s Summer of Innovation program. Others being Austin Middle School, Early College High School and Weis Middle School/Early Childhood University.
The video project in schools help the students to participate in the interaction program. Selected questions will be streamed to astronauts aboard the STS-135 shuttle and the astronauts’ answers will be streamed live in July during the shuttle’s flight, which will be broadcast on NASA TV. NASA designed the Summer of Innovation program in response to the campaign of President Barack Obama, Educate to Innovate campaign, which focuses on making American students competitive with students from other countries in math and science.
