Coming in September: Education Alley, the Ultimate Field Trip

JPL invites you and your students to "Discover What's Out There" at the AIAA Space 2009 Conference and Exhibit, an event with more than 15 industry and educational exhibitors at the Pasadena Convention Center, September 15 to 17, 2009.

Education Alley, the ultimate field trip, will excite your students about math and science as the foundation for exciting careers in the space industry. This successful program is coming to Pasadena for the first time, so make sure that you do not miss out on this event. Students will learn how space impacts their everyday lives by meeting with the people who work with satellites, astronauts, GPS technology...and many more topics. Each day, students will be part of a press conference or NASA live event and then tour a specially built exhibit, meet the commercial exhibitors at the Space 2009 Conference and Exhibit and participate in presentations that will leave them talking on the bus back to school! The event is sponsored by The Aerospace Corporation, The Boeing Company, Raytheon, Space X, Wyle and the X Prize Foundation.

The exhibit is each day from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and is provided free of charge. Space is limited, so reserve your spot now by downloading the registration form and faxing to 703-264-7551. Questions, please contact Lisa Bacon at lisab@aiaa.org.
