Students Visits Astronaut Launch

Students Visits Astronaut Launch

Adeline Wright, a SLCSE-Bryant Middle School student, was chosen to visit the Virgin Galactic astronaut launch. She and her father were able to join with the Virgin Galactic team during the launch and meet astronauts, engineers, and scientists. Adeline was invited because she was the top-performing student in the Uplift Aerospace Starborn Academy program, a nine-week STEM program for SLCSE-Bryant students.

Adeline and her father toured Spaceport America and watched the rocket launch the astronauts into space. The cherry on top was having Adeline meet Richard Branson and sit down and play a game of chess with him.

Thanks to everyone who helped this dream become a reality.
