Astronaut Ron Garan
Hey Everyone - I wanted to send out an update on the amazing students and teachers I have met so far.
Last week I went across the Atlantic (virtually of course) to visit an amazing group of students from Ireland.
This week we're coming back to the US and visiting with Mrs. Thiele and her awesome students at the SPARK Hybrid Education Center in Naples, Florida.
The nominations told an incredible story of Darlene Thiele as an amazing teacher that has inspired the students with a love of space. This year they've worked on STEM projects from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) with NASA including a Mars Rover prototype and "eggstronaut" parachute. Plus they've been following SpaceX and the Mars Rover, Perseverance, all year long.
We're going to have a lot of fun so Mrs. Thiele - I can't wait to meet you and your amazing students!
