Over 200 youth were able to experience a demo of our Starborn Academy at the Utah STEM Expo this weekend! The Starborn Academy program is a fully immersive mixed and virtual reality learning platform that puts students in the boots of astronauts and brings the excitement of astronaut training into #STEMeducation for the classroom and home. During the 9-week program, students will receive basic astronaut training before they embark on space missions where they will need to apply STEM concepts from chemistry, life sciences, and engineering to survive and thrive off-Earth. We are excited to soon share the school districts that we are working who will be running the Starborn Academy with their students to help increase critical thinking and performance in #STEM subjects. Thank you to @BeehiveAcademy for hosting the event, with a special shoutout and thank you to Kerrie Upenieks for her incredible work creating the event. We also want to send a big thank you to the @CivilAirPatrol Black Hawk Cadet Squadron for helping us during the event!

Speaking of @GoZeroG, look what the amazing photographer @raven50mm sent me! It’s call “Reaching to Infinity” and was taken during our zero-g flight with the @_space_plus folks last October at KSC. Can’t wait to get it framed and show it off! 🚀🌍🌎🌏📸

EXCELLENT @Medium article by @dankay discussing the inevitability of robot-written content taking over. But there is a ratio we need to consider: content:art ChatGPT excels at generating average content for humans, but—as Dan says—"art is not average" 👏 thisisyouth.medium.com/chatgpt-wont-k…
