The Voyager Club's October Meeting at the Space Center. Nan Bryan Retires From the Space Center after Four Years of Dedicated Service. Imaginarium Theater

The Space Center's Voyager Club met for its monthly meeting on October 25, 2025 in the school's faculty room.  From 8:00 - 8:30 several games of Bingo were played with lots of prizes going out to the lucky winners.  Tyler Weight, the Voyager Club's Acting Department Head called a few games. That was a first for us. He did a great job with his commanding booming voice.   

The bingo game wrapped up at 8:30 A.M. for the meeting's official start.  Eavie and Alex, the club's president and vice president, opened the meeting and introduced new club members.

           New club member Brigham was introduced to the membership

After new members were introduced, the meeting continued with two workshops and a prize raffle.  Eavie taught a workshop on theatrical makeup. Tyler taught the second of two workshops on the proper way to be a great bridge doctor during missions.  Members who completed both doctoring workshops will have a personalized medical ID badge created for them to wear when they work in the simulators as the doctor character. 

Members who took the makeup workshop will have their rank/ID cards stamped. The stamp gives them exclusive access to the Space Center's makeup kit.    

Thank you Tyler, Eavie, and Alex for your presentations and thank you to all our Voyager Club members for attending.  The next meeting will be held the last Saturday of November.  

Nan Bryan Retires from the Space Center. She Walked Away from the Falcon with a Rousing Cheer From Her Last Crew.  

                       Nan with her last Staff and Volunteers.  October 24, 2025

Nan Bryan retired from active Space Service last Friday and will be heading planetside to live the life of a civilian. Her time at the Space Center was rewarding for her and an example of a postive, Can Do, attitude for all of us at the Space Center.  

She started as a volunteer in June 2021 and worked her way up through the ranks to supervisor and then flight director.  I had the privilege of working with her during my brief tenure as a Cassini flight director a few years ago.  She was great with the volunteers and staff, and superb with the crews.  She always had a smile and a "we will get through this" no matter what was happening in the ship.  

               Nan flying the Falcon for her last mission

Nan was holding down a few jobs over the last several months while trying to go to school. She discovered one important life lesson in juggling all of these commitments - you can't do everything. Sometimes you need to move on to accomplish life goals.  

                Nan, on the Falcon, for the Last Hurrah.

The Space Center community thanks Nan for sharing her time and talents with us.  We wish her all the best for the wonderful things that she will do in the years to come.  And So Say We All!

The video below if the last few minutes of Nan's final mission on Friday evening, October 24, 2025. The video ends with a fantastic final CHEER from her crew. What a way to go out Nan!  And on a personal note to Nan, you always know where I am on a Saturday afternoon in my chair, working on my computer in the Staff Room at the Space Center. Come by for a catch up visit any time.
