iLEAD Agua Dulce DreamUp Design Challenge 2022-23

Through the iLEAD Agua Dulce DreamUp to Space Mission 2022-23 Experiment Design Challenge, iLEAD Agua Dulce learners have been busy designing experiments that could be selected to be conducted on the International Space Station. During the final phase, our finalist teams created short videos pitching their ideas and the plans they developed for how, in the event that their experiment is chosen, they will use the opportunity for their school site and community outreach. Learners were required to include subject matter experts to support their experiment designs. A panel of science and space experts is reviewing their proposals and videos. The top team will have their experiment flown and conducted on the International Space Station, targeted for May 2023.

Congratulations and best wishes to this year’s iLEAD Agua Dulce DreamUp to Space Mission 2022-23 Experiment Design Challenge finalists!
