NASA's Objectives

In service to NASA’s strategic educational objectives, if funded ASMO could offer competency-building educational and research opportunities through hands-on, real-world applications of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) knowledge. Students could also acquire in-depth experience in communications and project management, as well as gain familiarity with satellite mission protocol and procedures. ASMO participation and public outreach could encourage educators to develop and deliver project related course resources and custom curricula for integration into STEM disciplines. The experience could also introduce both faculty and students to follow-on NASA mission-related research and development opportunities.
