Hey @neiltyson! We ❤️ your message AND we're doing something about it! We DO teach science as a method and tool of inquiry and loved hearing you advocate for that at 3:45! youtu.be/LYWRkZ91bTc?... #ScienceRules go2science.com

Hey @chucknicecomic! We think science should be taught as a way of thinking, not just facts. Go2Science inspires kids (5-11) to DO science by virtually joining real field missions globally. Building critical thinkers, not test-takers! Check us out. 🌍 #ScienceIsFun #Go2Science

Hey @neiltyson! We agree, kids are born curious! So we built Go2Science to get "out of their way." We give kids (5-11) a virtual front row seat to real research missions. They draw conclusions based on evidence, building evidence-based citizens. #ScienceRules #CriticalThinking
