Educational Outreach
Students will be able to share their knowledge and “enhance public understanding of, and participation in, the Nation’s space program”* through the use of a social media platform by:
- Posting of project information on SilverSat website.
- Sharing of project updates and developments.
- Having CubeSat take and post pictures from space.
Sustainability
Through outreach to Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS), SilverSat and its student members will offer assistance to MCPS’s STEM curriculum.
MCPS 5th-grade curriculum includes a CubeSat unit.
This helps create a “sustainable program”* that can be used to continue our overarching mission past the time we complete our CubeSat, enabling future generations to learn about technology and space.
