Launching Your Aerospace Career
As unbelievable as it seems my passion for aerospace and space research was not found until my senior year in high school. There are many programs I wish I had known about throughout my schooling and programs I still want to participate in the future. I hope this post open doors about ways you can launch your aerospace career and spark your imagination.
Elementary School
FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Jr. LEGO League (Jr.FLL) Students ages 6 - 9 create an invention out of LEGO parts that solves real world problems.
FIRST LEGO League (FLL) Students ages 9 - 14 design, build, and program LEGO Robots that compete in a game. A really cool FLL team
VEX IQ Challenge Elementary - middle school students build controllable robots to complete tasks and compete.
Middle School
FIRST LEGO League (FLL) Students ages 9 - 14 design, build, and program LEGO Robots that compete in a game. A really cool FLL team
FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) Students in grades 7 - 12 design, fabricate, wire, and program robots to compete in alliances. A really cool FTC team
VEX IQ Challenge Elementary - middle school students build controllable robots to complete tasks and compete.
VEX Robotics Competition With skills in computer aided design, programming, animation, and fabrication middle school - college students build robots and compete on alliances of 2 V 2 to achieve reach the top score.
High School
FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) Students in grades 7 - 12 design, fabricate, wire, and program robots to compete in alliances. A really cool FTC team
FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) In only six weeks high school students from around the world design and build 120 lb robots to play games such as soccer, basketball, and Ultimate Frisbee. I captained an FRC team in high school and can vouch that all the FIRST robotics leagues (JrFLL - FRC) are fantastic! My old high school's FRC team
Texas High School Aerospace Scholars High school students from Texas get to collaborate with NASA engineers onsite to complete a week long project and work among fellow scholars.
VEX Robotics Competition With skills in computer aided design, programming, animation, and fabrication middle school - college students build robots and compete on alliances of 2 V 2 to achieve reach the top score.
Glenn High School Internship Project (GHIP) Eight week paid internship for high schoolers to work at NASA's Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio. This opportunity is for incoming juniors and seniors.
K - 12
Science, Engineering, Mathematics, and Aerospace Academy (SEMAA) Summer filled with innovation offering activities for all Contact
Destination Imagination Improv to engineering, art to teamwork students compete from around the world in many disciplines.
College
NASA Community College Aerospace Scholars (NCAS) Community college students get onsite and online NASA experience and education.
VEX Robotics Competition With skills in computer aided design, programming, animation, and fabrication middle school - college students build robots and compete on alliances of 2 V 2 to achieve reach the top score.
NASA College Internships Paid internships at NASA available for year round and every season at the various NASA centers.
NASA Pathways Internship (College Co-Op) Now the OSSI internships are different than what NASA calls Pathways Internships (more commonly known as Co-Ops) where you are a civil servant with higher pay and benefits. You also go on “tours” (at least 3) where you switch between a semester working and NASA and a semester studying three times.
All Ages and Disciplines

My recognizable handwriting (what?) is start and quit :р Hahaha
God I don't care.
Well, I had a lot of stories...
Oh.
Yes...
ALL THIS TIME IT HAS BEEN FEET AND NOT TIGHTS!!??
I love Home! I have memories with him and my other neighbors. Tell me, do you have memories?
...Yeah...
Yes, I confuse the letters d and b
I haven't decided yet what clothes I should wear to draw Poppy...
Barnaby and Poppy mother and son. Barnaby and Wally are brothers. Wally and Poppy mother and son too(?)
The only way! >:(
They are family😭
Aristocrat and Librarian
Listen, I’m an antivirus, I’m fighting Trojans and I’m not one, clear?
I'm tiredb. By.
This drawing is talking to me! And most of these are compliments hee hee~
Sometimes I wonder if I should turn off the light myself?
Guys Gregory is just a lost child.
Freddie I don't want to hear from you anymore.
More and more often I think: “shouldn’t I turn off the light myself?”
A little about the lore of my blog
In general, in a good way, I need to develop the universe Aristocrat! But that will happen later :р
Redesign A-t!

DI! It was made by accident and in general it is like a meme, and not something serious. But A-t! I will develop. In the near future I will show the rest of the dolls, there are plans for some kind of comic or just fan fiction where the story of these guys will be told and where their personalities will be revealed... But I'm not Stephen King or Pushkin lol, so even though I want to write a story A-t! Don't expect much anyway.
I'm glad to see everyone here! Feel free to write to me or ask for anything. It's not a big deal for me
If you are interested, my time is Moscow (UTC +3)
