Space Camp – Rebecca Blum

September 25, 2020 @ 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Space Camp provides a unique, hands-on, STEM experience for students of all ages to train like astronauts! Space Camp is a place for learning, growing and having fun! Space Camp is a one-of-a-kind experience at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center, the Official Visitor Center for NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. Each year, trainees of all ages travel from across the United States and 150 countries to participate in our programs. Trainees learn space and flight history, work together as teams, experience simulators, complete simulated space missions, and learn what it really means to be an astronaut.

Rebecca Blum attended NASA’s Space Camp, and tells about her experiences there. Rebecca has recently graduated from Cranbrook Kingswood High School, and will be attending Brown University.

She has been looking through her grandfather Jon’s telescope since she was three years old, and has wanted to be an astronaut for almost that long. Her previous W.A.S. presentations were about PoSSUM Space Academy, and the Kennedy Space Center on Merritt Island, Florida.
