WIREUNWIRED BRIEF

On Tuesday, a classroom in St. Johns, Florida, will be replaced by a live feed from the International Space Station. Students will hear NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney answer their STEM questions from orbit, turning a routine lesson into a front‑line science experience. The 10:40 a.m.

EST call, streamed on NASA’s Learn With NASA YouTube channel, is hosted by Freedom Crossing Academy for K‑12 students and the community. Astronauts, pictured in pressure suits during SpaceX training, will answer prerecorded questions, giving students a chance to hear science directly from the crew. The ISS has been a laboratory for more than 26 years, pushing the limits of human spaceflight and opening commercial opportunities in low Earth orbit.

Its research feeds NASA’s Artemis program and future Mars plans, making the station a living classroom for future explorers. As the call begins, watch how the students’ curiosity translates into real‑world questions. This event underscores NASA’s commitment to building the next generation of STEM talent and reminds us that the frontier is still within reach.
