Orange Beach teacher reaches for the stars

Posted

Nicole Bryant, Orange Beach Elementary School teacher and director of The Steven W. Baker, Sea, Sand, & Stars Science Center at Orange Beach Elementary School, had the honor of being the only Alabama teacher selected to attend the Honeywell Educators Space Academy at the Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama, this summer.

Honeywell provided Bryant with a full scholarship to attend the Space Academy.

While there she attended classes, completed missions to the moon and Mars, met astronauts, and so much more!

This picture is from her experience on the 1/6th gravity chair which allows you to see what it would be like to walk on the moon. Honeywell selects 130 teachers from around the globe to participate in their week-long educator’s program.
