Ocean Energy
The oceans contain a huge amount of energy and capturing this energy could have substantial benefits!

According to the International Energy Agency, globally, ocean energy could help mitigate the effects of climate change by reducing carbon emissions from fossil fuel-driven electricity generation by an estimated 500 million tons by 2050.

National Air and Space Museum Explainers Program!
Have you ever wondered how a space shuttle toilet works? Or even how to land a space shuttle?

The Explainers Program hires high school and college students to help visitors better understand the Museum’s artifacts and exhibitions through hands-on programming.

Explainers work at either the National Air and Space Museum in Washington DC or at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia.
