STEM: Where Brilliant Young Minds Are Making a Difference Around the GLOBE

This year, we will be going GLOBAL and partnering with GLOBE & NASA on several projects to collect and analyze data which will then be used by NASA scientist. 

The Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) Program is an international science and education program that provides students and the public worldwide with the opportunity to participate in data collection and the scientific process, and contribute meaningfully to our understanding of the Earth system and global environment.  Announced by the U.S. Government on Earth Day in 1994, GLOBE launched its worldwide implementation in 1995. GLOBE is sponsored by NASA and supported by NSF, NOAA, and the US Department of State.  The GLOBE website can ba accessed at globe.gov.
