“Science is not a boy’s game, it’s not a girl’s game.
It’s everyone’s game.
It’s about where we are and where we’re going.
Space travel benefits us here on Earth.
And we ain’t stopped yet.
There’s more exploration to come.”
Nichelle Nichols

Mission: Boldly Going Forward
Together
We are here to continue breaking down the barriers.
We are here to open the doors of opportunity.
We are here to serve and inspire women and BIPOC (Blacks, Indigenous, People of Color) communities to reach for the stars.
Education is the gateway to dreams, and our young people are our future.
With Nichelle Nichols as our guiding star, we continue the mission to make an impact in young people’s lives and create a path for STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) related education and careers.
