Limitless Education & Outreach

At the Limitless Space Institute, we believe that a strong education system is key to unlocking limitless potential for our future workforce and the next generation of explorers. Therefore, our mission is to provide comprehensive resources and support to K-12 educators, to provide community outreach programming, and develop K-12 STEM lesson plans tied to interstellar space travel.

Our primary aim is to offer educator professional development opportunities, through workshops, opportunities with leaders in the field of power and propulsion, and the Limitless Educator Summer Institute. We know that educators around the world are the individuals who have a significant impact on students through real-world, relevant, and exciting learning experiences. These additional opportunities for teachers will equip them with the skills, knowledge, and resources they need to effectively engage students in topics related to interstellar travel and foster innovation and creativity in the classroom. At the same time, we also recognize the significance of community outreach programs in bridging the gap between STEM education and underrepresented or underserved communities. Our efforts to partner with local organizations will ensure that we reach diverse audiences and inspire young minds to pursue careers in STEM fields.

Finally, we recognize the importance of developing K-12 lesson plans that adhere to the latest scientific advancements in space exploration and best practices in teaching. By collaborating with educators, we will produce high-quality lesson content that is easy to implement, aligned with state standards, and can be adapted to different teaching methods and student needs. Together, these initiatives will promote a culture of STEM education that empowers teachers, inspires communities, and prepares students for future success.

Educators

It is our goal to inspire and educate the next generation to travel beyond our solar system and support the research and development of enabling technologies. The mission of the Limitless Educator Program is to inspire innovative educators to teach beyond the general curriculum. Limitless Educators engage in unique virtual guest speaker opportunities from scientists conducting research in the realm of advanced power and propulsion systems. We also offer our educators the opportunity to attend the Limitless Space Educator Institute, which immerses participants in extraordinary professional development experiences and gives these rock star teachers the time to work together to design new and innovative lesson plans tied to interstellar exploration.  We are thrilled with the cohort of Limitless educators from around the world who have integrity, an out-of-this-world imagination, and the courage to try new things in the classroom!

Meet the 2023 class of Limitless Educators!

Lab booster program

LIMITLESS LAB BOOSTER PROGRAM

The Limitless Education Lab Booster is designed to help Educators and educational organizations, both in the United States and internationally, acquire additional resources to support student learning in STEM. Educators that are recipients of a Lab Booster grant clearly communicate their pursuit of innovative methods that will inspire and educate the next generation of explorers. The Limitless Space Institute will designate Stage I Lab Booster awards that can range from $500 to $5000 depending on the need and scope of the proposal. 

Lab Booster Checklist

  • Must submit a completed Lab Booster Application via the button below
  • Must download a budget workbook file via the “Budget” button below
  • The budget file must be filled in completely and signed off by an administrator

The budget file must then be emailed to kaci@limitlessspace.org

Congratulations to our 2022 Limitless Lab Booster recipients!

Lesson Plans

LIMITLESS LESSON PLANS

Innovative STEM lesson plans tied to space exploration are important because they foster curiosity and creativity in learners while also providing them with opportunities to develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and technical skills. These lesson plans encourage students to explore different aspects of advanced power and propulsion systems for interstellar space travel through hands-on learning experiences and real-world applications.

By teaching students about space exploration, educators can also help them understand the wider implications of science and engineering, such as sustainability, global cooperation, and innovation. Ultimately, innovative STEM lesson plans tied to space exploration can inspire and prepare the next generation of scientists and explorers, allowing them to contribute to the development of new technologies and breakthroughs in our understanding of the universe.

All our Limitless Lessons are designed for teachers by teachers. Each lesson plan includes a powerpoint presentation for the activity, a detailed description for teacher background information, a student packet, and alignment to NGSS standards. Teachers are encouraged to edit the slides and lessons as they see fit to meet the needs of their students. It is our intent to grow our library of interstellar offerings as the program grows so we are open to suggestions for lesson topics and feedback to make the lessons better after you have implemented them with students.

Have fun exploring!
