Callisto: Space Innovation Tour

About this opportunity

Come aboard the Orion spacecraft and discover the inner workings of new, special space technology that flew to the Moon during NASA's Artemis I flight test. Students learn about Callisto, the special technology experiment that flew on board the Orion spacecraft in NASA's Artemis I mission. Along the way students learn how we got to space, the science behind deep space communication, new telemetry displays, deep space video communication and whiteboard collaboration, voice artificial intelligence, a radiation experiment, and experience a pre-recorded live demo of the technology in action. Students also get to meet engineers from Amazon Alexa, Lockheed Martin, and Webex by Cisco that made this technology happen!\n\nIn this tour, students explore the following careers: Software Development Engineer (2), Systems Integration Test Engineer, Software Lead, Technical Leader, Technical Marketing Engineer. The 50-minute interactive tour is aligned to Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and CSTA K-12 Computer Science Standards. The Teacher Toolkit includes a facilitation guide, worksheets, and other resources to support learning during the tour.
