AMARILLO, Texas(KAMR/KCIT) —As we prepare for the Total Solar Eclipse, why not dive into the world of Space and #STEM. The Stomp Rocket has been around for decades, and now you can buy The Original Stomp Rocket NASA Collection. It features three spacecraft and the launcher. The three spacecraft in the set include the Saturn V Rocket, Space Shuttle Atlantis and Space Launch System (SLS). Each rocket-launching toy is based on STEM concepts of science, technology, engineering and math, encouraging curious kids to challenge themselves through play. #STEMAuthenticated 🔐 https://lnkd.in/g6f7Dh_6

As I commented below, design impacts the environment - here in the form of sound power. This is an interesting use case for test and measurement microphones from GRAS Sound & Vibration

Space is a very unforgiving environment! There are a lot of things that can adversely affect hardware in space. If new space startups aren’t learning from past mistakes that are public record or skipping steps in the process, then things probably will not go so well for them. Mandala’s brain trust has cumulatively over 350 years of building and flying things in space and to other worlds. If you honestly want to know if your tech will work/survive, you can’t have a better team to deeply assess and advise you on how to achieve what you are trying to do.

Art captures the essence of space, translating its beauty, mystery, and wonder into tangible experiences that complement scientific knowledge. 🎨🔬 Artists have even been invited by space agencies like NASA to create works that inspire and educate about the cosmos. ✨ Learn more about how art and space exploration go together, like the sun and the moon, for #WorldSpaceWeek! ☀️🌕 https://loom.ly/YbekKmQ

For those who don't know him, Moriba Jah is a space environmentalist & as far as I know, he's the most prominent space environmentalist in the world. As we mitigate climate change on Earth, Moriba is already looking beyond orbit & thinking about how humanity can cultivate sustainability through a transdisciplinary approach. An anthropocosmic lens is the antithesis of anthropocentrism. Looking at the world with the pair of anthropocosmic glasses reinforces the importance of environmental stewardship & the #ancienttek that Moriba is amplifying. He's a big reason why I'm exploring the opportunities & challenges of space sustainability & equity. Everything has an end. As humanity expands into the future, I hope we will employ strategies & behaviors that are rooted in compassion & intentionality.

DEEP SPACE EXPEDITIONS & IMPACTS (on biological entities at various events) How does this knowledge add to our understanding of extended space travel? What are some possible physiological changes and difficulties NASA astronaut Frank Rubio might have encountered during his record-breaking 371-day mission aboard the International Space Station (ISS), including biological (muscles, brain, and the makeup of gut bacteria) changes?

SCaN STEM Navigation Activities: Navigate Space: Space Communications and Navigation Workbook Grades 8 – 12  NASA navigates throughout the solar system and beyond, revealing the mysteries of the universe. In this workbook, you’ll use basic mathematics concepts to explore space navigation. We’ll use simplified, real-world examples supplied by navigation engineers to delve deep into the exciting world of space exploration. […]

Bravo Sierra Space! This latest successful milestone and the first one in the testing campaign to include a metallic window sub-structure – or blanking plate – now propels Sierra Space into full-scale testing of LIFE by the end of this year. The milestone cements the company’s position as the industry leader in commercial space station development for use in low-Earth orbit (LEO) and deep space. “Sierra Space is putting affordable in-space infrastructure within reach so every boardroom can now look to space for their next breakthrough products,” said Sierra Space CEO Tom Vice. “Our revolutionary space station technology, combined with our highly reusable Dream Chaser spaceplane, significantly decreases the cost of in-space infrastructure and Is ushering in the commercialization of Low Earth Orbit.” Check out Sierra Space's latest video: Reinventing the Space Station with LIFE Habitat here: https://lnkd.in/dt3SRjw2 #SpaceNews #SpaceExploration #SpaceInnovation #SierraSpace #LowEarthOrbit
