Students from Colorado and Indiana will have the opportunity next week to hear from NASA astronaut Kjell Lindgren aboard the International Space Station. The two space-to-Earth calls will air live next week on NASA Television, theNASA app, and the agencys website.
Lindgren attended the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, earned a masters degree from Colorado State University in Fort Collins, and received a doctorate from the University of Colorado in Denver. The astronaut will answer prerecorded questions from students across Colorado at 1:10 p.m. EDT Tuesday, Aug. 30. The call will be part of Denver Museum of Nature & Sciences Scientists in Action broadcast series that engages students by connecting them with working scientists in the field. It will reach school districts, homeschool learning pods, senior community groups, and youth-serving community organizations across Colorado.
