Students from southern New Mexico schools will have an opportunity to hear from NASA astronauts aboard the International Space Station.
The Earth-to-space call will air live at 11:30 a.m. EDT Tuesday, May 30, on NASA Television, theNASA app, and the agencyswebsite.
NASA astronauts Steve Bowen and Frank Rubio will answer prerecorded questions from students through a collaboration with the New Mexico Museum of Space History. The museum is dedicated to telling the story of space exploration and has engaged several school districts in southern New Mexico to participate in the downlink. The museums educators traveled to each district and presented information about the space station and its Expedition 69 crew, then worked with the students to develop the questions posed to the astronauts.
