Hawaii Science and Technology Museum, Inspiring the next generation of #Scientists and #Engineers #STEAM #STEM #WomenInSTEM #HawaiiScience

Hiapo 2.0 will measure high energy particles and induced magnetic fields in the thermosphere to better understand the process of heating the Earth’s lower atmosphere, allowing for the creation of more accurate climate models that take solar electromagnetic activity into account, a key goal for both NASA and the people of Hawai’i #FireflyDREAM

This will be the second DREAM CubeSat developed by Hawaii Science and Technology Museum and Hawaii Space Flight Laboratory that will fly free of charge on our Alpha rocket. We’re incredibly proud of the impact this program is having on students in Hawaii!

Excited to announce another winner of Firefly’s DREAM program: HIAPO 2.0 from @HawaiiScience, selected in collaboration with @ESA’s 4S Symposium! fireflyspace.com/dream/

W. M. Keck Observatory's 30th Science Anniversary 💫The future of science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM) is in the hands of our keiki. This #thankfulthursday, we highlight important programs that spark excitement for STEAM, such as the Hawaiʻi Science & Technology Museum. Keckie Kekoa Alip, Community Relations Coordinator, engaged with nearly 400 students from Naʻalehu Elementary at the grand opening of Honuworks, the Museum’s robotics & technology center serving the Naʻalehu community. HSTM aims to inspire genuine interest in STEAM through science camps, math tutoring, after school programs, student research support, and robotics competitions.
