Astronaut Charlie Duke to talk to Scouts in STEM Speaker Series

Image Credit: NASA “Astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr., Apollo 16 Lunar Module pilot, is photographed collecting lunar samples at Station No. 1 during the mission’s first extravehicular activity at the Descartes landing site. This picture, looking eastward, was taken by Commander John W. Young. Duke is standing at the rim of Plum crater, which is 40 meters (131 feet) in diameter and 10 meters (about 33 feet) deep. The lunar rover can be seen in the background.”

STEM Speaker Series is an online event for youth to hear from and engage with STEM professionals. Created by the NCAC STEM Committee, this Series has been running since May 2020 on Thursday evenings, and has since welcomed dozens of STEM experts to share career talks.

We hosted a medical physicist, statistician, USCG pilot, nuclear scientist, veterinarian, pathologist… and now we are excited to welcome an astronaut on March 18th!
