About this award
Infinity Science Center, Inc., a non-profit science museum and official NASA visitor center located in Pearlington, Mississippi, received a $38.5K grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration on August 1, 2023, to execute the EO14042 Outreach STEM Education initiative. The two-year project, scheduled for completion by July 31, 2026, is designed to bring quality science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education experiences to underserved coastal children and families through partnerships with local county library systems and the Infinity Science Center facility. The program will deliver no-cost STEM activities to students in grades K-12 across participating library branches, featuring NASA-designed and approved activities, lectures, and educational videos. Year One will focus on aeronautics with the theme "NASA Is With You When You Fly," while Year Two will shift to lunar and deep space exploration under "Moon to Mars: Moon Lights the Way."
The project employs a two-pronged delivery model combining community library engagement with centralized learning opportunities. Following initial two-hour STEM events at library locations, participants will be invited to attend an annual three-hour STEMFest event hosted at Infinity Science Center, where they can interact with local STEM professionals, NASA Solar System Ambassadors, and NASA experts to deepen their engagement with space science content. This coordinated approach provides continuity of learning experiences while introducing regional students to STEM career opportunities. The award carries no set-aside designation and represents the center's continued focus on providing educational programs and community outreach in science and technology disciplines.
