Sometimes a story about the SSEP experience at the local level is so moving, and so well written, it just needs to be shared far and wide. Here is what the program means to Amanda Arceo, the SSEP Community Program Director for the Avicenna Academy Science Community Collaboration (AASCC) in Crown Point, IN, a SSEP initiative funded by the wonderful folks at the Indiana Space Grant Consortium.

The Student Spaceflight Experiments Program (SSEP) is a program of the National Center for Earth and Space Science Education (NCESSE) in the U.S., and the Arthur C. Clarke Institute for Space Education internationally. It is enabled through a strategic partnership with DreamUp PBC and NanoRacks LLC, which are working with NASA under a Space Act Agreement as part of the utilization of the International Space Station as a National Laboratory. SSEP is the first pre-college STEM education program that is both a U.S. national initiative and implemented as an on-orbit commercial space venture.
