The End of a Busy October at the Space Centers and Mission.io. Imaginarium Theater

The Christa McAuliffe Space Center

Just in time for Halloween came the Fright Flights and the planetarium Halloween laser show. They ran all weekend.  





The Space Place at Renaissance Academy

Flightmares on the Starship Voyager ran for the past two weekends.

October meant Flightmares at Renaissance Academy's The Space Place.  Bracken Funk, Megan Warner, and their crew of merry Renaissance Voyager Club members put together another one of Bracken's famous "Oops I've had an accident in my pants" missions for those who can't repeat "this is only a mission, this is only a mission," and believe it.

Our Friends at Mission.io


I did all day teacher trainings in Vegas. One school at a time. One faculty meeting at a time. Little by little we keep growing this thing. Most of the founding team is on the road this week promoting Mission.io in Florida, Nevada and Michigan. Next week is Wyoming for me. Give it five years and everyone in K12 education will know Mission.io.

The October Voyager Club Meeting


Hey, you old timers remember the early Saturday morning donut run for the overnight camps? Well, one Saturday per month the tradition continues, sort of. One Saturday every month I arrive at the Space Center early early on a Saturday morning with drink in hand and a wagon full of donuts and supplies for the monthly Voyager Club meeting. Our volunteers comprise the Voyager Club's membership.

I'm not the only one who shows up early on a Saturday when there is work to be done. Who do you think took this picture? Yep, James Porter, Space Center Director. Our motto, "There is too much to do and NO time to do it!"
