GAB Poll
One of the first tasks the GAB is starting is a six-week, mini-session, virtual troop that will begin meeting in March. Since March is Women’s History Month, the virtual troop will focus on famous Girl Scouts. The GAB would like your help in determining the best time to have these virtual meetings. You can fill out the poll here. And we also encourage you to share with interested friends or family who may be looking to join this mini-troop.
Send Your Name to Outer Space!
Here’s a stellar opportunity to send a piece of your adventurous spirit to space! Join NASA’s Europa Clipper mission by having your name travel to one of Jupiter’s most intriguing moons, Europa.
How? Your name will be engraved on a microchip aboard NASA’s Europa Clipper spacecraft. This spacecraft will launch next year and travel 1.8 billion miles (2.6 billion kilometers) to study Jupiter’s moon Europa. Beyond Earth, Europa is considered one of the most promising currently habitable environments in our solar system, and your name could be part of this historic exploration!
It’s easy to send your name to space. Click this link to submit your name and be a part of this cosmic adventure. Submissions must be in by December 31.
