SciAct Rural
Welcome to the NASA Science Activation Rural Page! Many of our Science Activation Teams strive to reach our rural learners across the United States. While we recognize that rural areas are incredibly diverse, our goal is not to find a one-size-fits all approach, but rather share resources that may be transferable and modified to fit the needs of specific settings. Explore NASA Science and Science Activation resources and opportunities highlighted in the 3-D Thursdays for Rural Educators webinars as well as our Rural Educator Network newsletters.
