Space Day 2009

Space Day is an education and public outreach initiative that takes place annually on the first Friday of May. This year’s theme is “Celebrating Human Space Flight: Past, Present and Future.” In formal and informal learning settings around the world, students, teachers, friends and families will celebrate the accomplishments of space exploration by engaging in math and science educational activities. Lockheed Martin sponsors Space Day.

Since Space Day’s inception in 1997, people around the world have been introduced to space-related science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
