One of my grad students (from India) is conducting a study on moral leadership in the context of humanity's future in space. If you are a space educator, professional, or enthusiast, I hope you can make a contribution here. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

It's the special moments, like seeing the Moon and planets after sunset on White Sands, that make each Earth and Space Experience a bucket list experience... and we're going back! ✨ areslearning.com/earthandspace

If you're at #SXSWEDU (or in the Austin area), I'd love to meet up for a live demo... so you can see how students and teachers use Slooh telescopes across the curriculum from elementary school through grad school. 🌍🔭🛰️✨

I'm here representing Slooh at #SXSWEDU! I'd love to meet up if you're here ... or in the area. It'd be great to chat face-to-face, and I'd be happy to do a live demo too. Just reply or message me so we can connect!

Day 3 is always the most adventurous... and the winds today made Aden Crater feel even more like Mars during a dust storm! 🟠 We also made it to Kilbourne Hole where Apollo and Artemis astronauts have trained in geology to prepare for missions to the Moon! 🌒

Today we visited the New Mexico Museum of Space History to see a surprisingly rich collection of artifacts... before visiting Carrizozo Lava Flow (an anlaog for the Moon & Jupiter's moon Io) and White Sands (an analog for gypsum sand dunes around the North Pole of Mars).

Here's a few highlights from Day 1 of the Earth and Space Experience for Educators! And the stuff we couldn't photograph was even cooler. 😁 Thanks to our hosts at Spaceport America and Virgin Galactic for an awe inspiring day. 🚀

Got some spectacular shots from Slooh's remote telescopes last night... the Orion Nebula was captured from the Canary Islands a few hours before the full Moon was shot in Australia. Students can have access to this during the school day (and from home) using any device with a browser...

Pretty great true color in this live image of the Horeshead Nebula through an optical @slooh telescope in the Canary Islands... captured just now from my laptop.
