Thrilled to announce that @NASA is awarding over $5 million to women's colleges to address the gender gap in STEM fields! This initiative, supported by @POTUS, will empower women to pursue and thrive in science, technology, engineering, and math careers.

This is why we must make space accessible for everyone.💫🌎
People like @katvoltage are making space futures a reality for the next generation in Latin America.
Because all children should have the option to pursue their dreams no matter where they come from!

Why S.T.E.A.M. > S.T.E.M.?
Because we need more tools in our tool box!🛠️
#STEAM is a much more comprehensive term than #STEM because it allows us to reflect on how creativity can be leveraged as we work towards solving the problems we are facing today.
