Contract Type FiledMarch 1st, 2013Education Flight Projects (EFP) is a NASA Office of Education K-12 project, managed by the Teaching From Space office at the NASA Johnson Space Center. The project’s strength is its capability to highlight the Agency’s missions and connect education audiences to NASA content, people, and facilities. EFP activities involve K-12 students and educators in hands-on experiences and research applications, on the ground, above the ground, and in space. Activities are “as only NASA can” and utilize a variety of NASA flight platforms, including the International Space Station (ISS) and NASA ground-based research and test facilities. EFP provides opportunities for students and educators to interact with NASA researchers, scientists, and engineers.

Contract Type FiledMay 7th, 2015Education Flight Projects (EFP) and International Space Station National Laboratory Education (ISSNLE) are NASA Office of Education projects, managed by the Teaching From Space office at the NASA Johnson Space Center. The projects work closely together on education activities that highlight the Agency’s missions and connect education audiences to NASA content, people, and facilities. This synergistic approach promotes a flow of information that enhances both projects. Through this sharing of information and resources, efficiencies and opportunities emerge which ultimately result in a richer learning experience for students and educators. The activities involve students and educators in hands-on experiences and research applications in space and on Earth. Activities are “as only NASA can” and utilize a variety of NASA flight platforms, including the International Space Station (ISS) and NASA ground-based research and test facilities. EFP and ISSNLE provide opportunities for students and
