Upcoming Opportunities Winter 2025

NASA’s Astrophoto Challenge: Winter 2025

Join NASA’s Universe of Learning for an exciting opportunity to use real astronomical data and tools to create your own beautiful images. This winter, explore the Cartwheel and Andromeda galaxies, two examples of galaxies that have undergone dramatic interactions with other galaxies. Capture your own real-time telescope image using the MicroObservatory robotic telescope network. Or work with archival data files taken with multi-wavelength NASA missions from NASA (Webb, Hubble, Chandra, GALEX, and WISE).

Student Suborbital Flight Opportunity – Cubes in Space

NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility and iEDU Inc. invite educators (formal, informal, home-school) of students ages 11-18 to register for the free Cubes in Space program. Participants receive a course of activities that guide students to design experiments or technologies that connect to a real-world Earth or space-based problem or need. Selected experiments will be launched via a sounding rocket from Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia as part of RockSat-C in late June 2025, or from a high-altitude scientific balloon in New Mexico by NASA’s Balloon Program Office in late August 2025.

Registration Deadline: Feb. 17, 2025
