Wyoming Highschool Students Working With NASA

University Of Wyoming Team Advances In NASA Design Challenge

A University of Wyoming student team is one of seven student teams selected to advance to the second phase of NASA’s 2023 Micro-g Neutral Buoyancy Experiment Design Teams (NExT) engineering design challenge.

A rare comet is set to brighten the night sky for the first time in 50,000 years and Laramie, Wyoming is one of the best places to sight it.

If you love taking a blanket, laying on your back and looking at the Stars, Wyoming is one of the best states because of the lack of "light pollution" and for the next month is going to be even better.

According to the National Weather Service, for southeast Wyoming residents, ''Total eclipse begins at 511 AM MDT. Greatest eclipse is at 519 AM MDT. Total eclipse ends at 526 AM MDT."

If you think Wyoming is a looker from the ground, you should see us from space. Recent pics show our state from miles above the earth and include viewpoints we've never seen of last year's wildfires.

You may have noticed the gorgeous full moon over Wyoming this week, but I bet you haven't seen it as close up as this zoomed in video shows.

We always encourage our Wyoming students to aim high. Midwest School took that direction literally a few months ago when they launched a high-altitude balloon nearly 100,000 feet over Wyoming.

The six-wheeled rover will drill down and collect tiny geological samples that will eventually be retrieved and brought home in about a decade.
