NEW YORK — Students from across New York are set to engage with the cosmos as NASA astronauts Jack Hathaway and Chris Williams answer STEM-focused questions from aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The Earth-to-space call is scheduled for Wednesday, March 11, at 12:05 p.m. EDT.
Hosted by the Queens Borough Public Library, the event targets K-12 students and the local community to foster interest in space exploration and STEM careers. The session will be broadcast live on the “Learn With NASA” YouTube channel.
This initiative highlights NASA’s ongoing mission on the ISS, where astronauts have lived and worked for over 25 years. These missions serve as a testing ground for the Artemis program, which aims to return humans to the Moon in preparation for future journeys to Mars.
