  1. Space Exploration for Everyone (SEE) is a privately backed and fully funded program that has designed, developed, and collected various education materials about space exploration and SEE has partnered with Massive Astronomy of Redshifted Spaces (MARS) LLC. To this end, we propose to expand our curriculum products to private and public educational institutions in order to increase awareness of space exploration and the incredible future it holds for humanity. Our team of highly qualified astronomers, scientists, and educators have worked together for over a decade in the private sector in order to put satellites into orbit for industrial applications and now we are looking to “reach for new heights and reveal the unknown for the benefit of humankind” (NASA 2016). In the 1960’s President Kennedy captured the hearts and imaginations of countless people across the world with the space race to the moon, he said "we choose to go to the moon! We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard" (NASA History); this is exactly the spirit that MARS and SEE want to enkindle with the youth of today and for future generations. At the heart of our discussion is education, that science, technology, mathematics, and engineering (STEM) are being taught in such a way that students can become disenfranchised and uninspired before they enter the workforce. We want to improve upon the current educational framework through mentorship and a carefully designed apprenticeship program. In our educational foundation we would partner together students and teachers with industry and government through public-private enterprises. In this way we want to allow students to discover their own strengths through practice and experiments in a real setting rather than just within a textbook.

  3. At MARS LLC we have a partnered network of hundreds of industry experts that have worked in space exploration for over 50 years. Our staff and educators have put together collaborative enterprises between local schools and companies in order to offer students on-site educational opportunities that range from apprenticeships, internships, to full-time positions. We have expanded the scope of our activities several times over the past years and recently we were able to form an official relationship with NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) for our new international efforts. Together we can work to expand space exploration and education for the greater benefit of all humanity.
