How to Become an UnstRonaute - The Job Camp for 10-12 year olds Launches this Summer with Mike Mongo

The Irish Tech News Podcast

What else would you do with your Space-mad-preteen but send them to a Job Camp and let them hear from SpaceX's Inspiration 4 Astronaut DR SIAN PROCTOR, NASA Space Shuttle Astronaut NICOLE STOTT and also Future Mars Walker Alyssa Carson?

This Job Camp has been unveiled on our podcast as fully sponsored and paid by the generosity of Shetland Space Centre at Saxa Vord, Unst, Scotland, and Wildland.

We also talked about Why Space? How to Participate in Space Sports? Mike also mentioned Humunnaires.org which provides a wonderful and supportive way to reassure and support children who have to quarantine, a novel idea!
