Community Outreach

The members of the Gr.A.I.N.S. team welcome opportunities to present our findings to interested local and regional groups (schools, library programs, etc.). One of the goals of our experiment is to share our experiences with the NASA Reduced Gravity Student Flight Opportunity Program with the general public to inform them of the local ongoing research as well as encourage further participation in science by all who attend. Anyone interested in hearing about the outcomes of our project should contact Shawn Jackson.
