education
As a National Laboratory, the Space Station is an enormous scientific endeavor meant to not only further science and technology, but educate the world of everything from effects of microgravity on the human body to plant growth in microgravity to water purification, you name it. But the Space Station would not have been possible without the people who have contributed to designing, building, and operating it. Space exploration is a continued effort over generations, and as such, education is a cornerstone of Station operations. How has education impacted your life? Education is essential to passing on knowledge and experience - what can you do to inspire your friends and family to pursue their dreams?
