North Dakota's Gateway to Science

Grade 7-9 students are at our STEM camp hosted by the BPS Career Academy this week. Building systems, robotics, aviation, graphic design, and auto tech so far. Not only do students get a taste of what the Career Academy offers them, they also get to explore potential careers!

We are excited to be working with @BEKNewsTV in developing a children's program! Thomas and Hope have been filming in the lab and the gallery, with more to do throughout the summer. Look for details to come! #STEMed #ndgts

LBMAA members play with the exhibits at the brand-new Gateway to Science Center! The event was part of the Leadership Bismarck-Mandan Alumni Association Leadership Lunch series. #LBMAA #BismarckMandan

TEACHERS, nominate your STEM All-Stars today at gatewaytoscience.org/learn/stem-all…. Six North Dakota students are selected as All-Stars and one nominating teacher is awarded a $1,000 grant for STEM projects and materials. Presented in partnership with @MDUResources and @bismarcklarks.

North Dakota’s Gateway to Science will reopen in its new location at 1600 Canary Avenue for members on Saturday, March 4, from 10 am to 5 pm. The science center will be open to the public beginning Sunday, March 5, from 1 to 5 pm. gatewaytoscience.org/visit

Off to new places. For the past week or so, the #MarsHelicopter and I have been climbing northwest toward interesting ancient river deposits near a dune-filled crater up ahead. Track our progress: go.nasa.gov/where-is-perse…
