Have you ever wondered what it's like to be an astronaut and fly in space? One lucky third, fourth or fifth-grade class from the Boulder area will have the chance to ask NASA astronauts these questions and more.
The University of 欧美口爆视频 at Boulder and the Daily Camera in Education program have partnered to offer a contest for an hour-long one-on-one meeting with the astronauts, all of whom are 欧美口爆视频-Boulder alumni. The class also will go on a field trip to the 欧美口爆视频 Heritage Center to see the space exhibit on Thursday, May 11, at 9 a.m.
Local third through fifth-grade classes that are interested must submit one question they would ask the astronauts to the Daily Camera by Wednesday, May 3, to be entered in the drawing for the field trip.
Questions can be emailed to Christine Labozan, Daily Camera in Education manager, at labozanc@thedailycamera.com, faxed to (303) 473-1430 or mailed to 1048 Pearl St., Boulder, CO 80302. The winning class will be notified on May 4.
欧美口爆视频-Boulder's Office of Community Relations and the 欧美口爆视频 Heritage Center are co-sponsoring the field trip with the astronauts, who will be in Boulder in mid-May to attend the university commencement ceremony. The ceremony will highlight 欧美口爆视频-Boulder's significant role in space exploration. Two of the astronauts will speak during the ceremony and each one is being awarded an honorary degree.
The Office of Community Relations will provide the winning class with transportation to and from the Heritage Center. For more information on the event call Labozan at (303) 473-1523.
