Educators:
October 26th is the Wirefly X PRIZE Cup Education Day! Continued and improved from our 2006 event, this year’s program includes special grade specific competitions for 4th-8th grade student groups, as well as the Pete Conrad Spirit of Innovation Award for high school groups. The program will be held on-site of the Wirefly X PRIZE Cup at Holloman Air Force Base this year. Education day is its own unique program, only open to students.
In addition to the new student competitions there will also be a new improved live show at the Wirefly X PRIZE Cup – including the Lunar Lander Challenge, high powered rockets, many exciting Air Force assets, and more. Educational groups participating this year will again receive X PRIZE Exploration Guides before the event to help educate and prepare students for what they will be able to do on-site of the Wirefly X PRIZE Cup.
The student competitions and live show will also be augmented with Astronaut sessions, special career presentations, opportunities to meet with the Lunar Lander Challenge teams, and other workshops for you and your students to participate in.
Save the date: October 26th to participate in this program. Registration for the Wirefly X PRIZE Cup program will be open in July.
Joshua Neubert.
