And while we have your attention we would like take a moment to thank this year’s major sponsors that are making it possible for AIAA Houston Section to host this great event. The dedication of our sponsors to sharing Space Exploration is exceptional and for that we thank them.

Please join us in giving Thanks to Jacobs Technology, The Boeing Co., and ERC!!

While your anticipation builds for the final details on the Celebration, don’t forget about Space Day @ Discovery Green and these two events as well:

1.)“The Future of Space” Art Contest has less than a week left!

Do you know a creative genius in grades K-8??  Here is an opportunity for them to shine!  This year we are once again hosting an art contest with the topic “The Future of Space”.  This event allows youngsters to imagine what the future of space may look like and gives them an opportunity to excercise their imaginations; for it is there where the future lies.

The deadline for receipt of the art pieces is March 31st so it’s coming up quick but the effort is well worth it as there are excellent prizes!  Check out our “The Future of Space - Art Contest” page link for more detail and contest rules.

Hope you are all enjoying the weekend!
