With the Artemis missions, NASA is sending astronauts back to the Moon, where they will learn to work and live on another world, leading to the first human steps on Mars. Artemis astronauts living and working on the Moon will make breakthrough discoveries revealing the formation of the Earth-Moon system and early history of our solar system. Join Jacob Bleacher, NASA’s chief exploration scientist, to hear how NASA is preparing for the next decades of epic lunar science and exploration. The infrastructure it develops will provide the tools, habitation, mobility, and power for crew and robots, providing more access and longer stays at the Moon. Whenever possible, those elements will be designed to work at Mars for future human missions to the Red Planet as NASA designs the blueprint for exploring the solar system.

In 2021 she self-published Suit Up for Launch with Shay!, a children's book that answers important questions about spacesuits. Join curator Dr. Emily Margolis as she hosts Sharon Caples McDougle in our latest live chat from the National Air and Space Museum.
A contemporary, competitor, and friend of Amelia Earhart, Jacqueline Cochran was one of the most outstanding women of the 20th century. Jackie stubbornly reinvented herself from a child of dire poverty to a successful businesswoman and one of the greatest pilots ever. She won speed records and air races in the 1930s, led the Women Airforce Service Pilots during World War II, ran for Congress and broke the speed of sound in the 1950s, and held the title of fastest woman in the world in the 1960s. Friend of generals and presidents, she supported women in aviation and space – except when she didn’t.
In this lecture, Dr. Katherine Sharp Landdeck will explore the story of the complicated Jacqueline Cochran and her impact on five decades of aviation history.

The path towards achieving your goal is not always straightforward. And that was certainly true for U.S. Air Force Col. Merryl Tengesdal (Ret.) as she worked towards the goal of earning her wings and shattering the sky. In 2004, Tengesdal made history as the first Black woman to fly the Lockheed U-2 reconnaissance aircraft – joining a program that very few women or Black pilots had participated in. Tune is as Tengesdal discusses the challenges she overcame and the resilient mindset she developed to set herself up for success and make history flying one of the most iconic aircraft still in operation.

Have you ever been at the beach and seen a banner streaming behind an airplane? Maybe it says something like "Grab a Hot Dog at Captain Jack's" and you think - hey a hot dog would be good. That's the power of advertising and we see it everywhere - on the TV, social media feeds, in magazines - advertising is a big business. But does it make sense to spend the money on a flying a banner over a crowded beach or writing something in the sky? What do you really know about aerial advertisement? How big does something need to be to see it from the ground and how do you write in the sky? We'll explore those topics and more in this episode of STEM in 30.

It takes a certain fearlessness to fly and evaluate experimental or newly-modified aircraft. The brave individuals who become test pilots do just that: they fly those aircraft and test new technologies. Test pilots have allowed us to break the speed of sound, pioneered blind flying, and pushed us to the edge of space. Each of these advancements has made air travel safer and more efficient. Join the STEM in 30 team as they take you inside the United States Naval Test Pilot School!

For over 40 years, Sean Tucker has thrilled air show audiences, ultimately earning numerous accolades, including the 1988 Advanced National Aerobatic Champion title and induction into the National Aviation Hall of Fame and the International Council of Air Shows Hall of Fame. Tucker’s aerobatic biplane, Challenger III, was built to withstand Tucker’s impressive maneuvers—like rolling at 400 degrees per second and “flying” backwards.
Join us to hear from Tucker about a singular lifetime of flight and his commitment to bringing young people into the aerospace community.

The Orbis Flying Eye Hospital is unlike any plane you’ve seen before. Eye care nonprofit Orbis International began with a big challenge and an even bigger idea: around the world, millions of people lose their sight because they can’t access the care they need, while eye care teams struggle to get training to help them care for patients in their communities. But what if training from the world’s best experts could reach the eye care teams that need it most? Forty years ago Orbis’s iconic Flying Eye Hospital – a fully accredited ophthalmic teaching hospital on board a plane – took its very first flight. Since then, three generations of the Flying Eye Hospital have taken training to eye care teams in over 95 countries around the world.
Join a conversation with Orbis’s vice president of clinical services and technologies, Dr. Hunter Cherwek, and director of aircraft operations and maintenance, Bruce Johnson, for an insider’s view into what it’s like to work on one of the world’s most unique aircraft and what’s ahead for this innovative organization and its fight against avoidable blindness.
