Invest & Inspire the Future of STEM Today!
When you support Higher Orbits, you aren't just supporting students pursuing STEM. You are supporting the bright minds of tomorrow. The next generation workforce is filled with cosmically creative communicators, stellar problem solvers, and galactically great leaders. While our mission is to promote Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) through our Go For Launch! programing, we wish to provide a unique and memorable experience that brings spaceflight to communities that might not otherwise have access to this, while supporting, encouraging, and teaching students to be confident and pursue their dreams. We help students reach for the stars through the wonders and excitement of space.
What Does your Support Mean?
Check out what students and parents have to say about the impacts of Higher Orbits...
"These skills play significant role in achieving the competition goals, which ultimately impart a genuine sense of accomplishment. No matter what the outcome, the Go For Launch program provides a rich and deep experience that has a truly powerful impact on those lucky enough to participate.” – Jason Artner, Director of Aerospace Programs, Scot Forge Company
"Years after I attended Go For Launch, I am still so grateful to the program and the opportunities and inspiration it gave me!" - Sarah, NESS Team Member
"Before attending my first Go For Launch!, I had some interest in space but I never really acted on it. This program really launched me into learning more about space, and without it, I would have never been able to take the initiative to learn what I have. To date, it has been the best experience I’ve had working with such great people towards a common goal." – Trinity, team member Reginae Reginarum, winners of 2018 Series
"Go for Launch is a program unlike any other. It was a fuel that ignited the embers of interest in space and space-related activities for my daughter. The experience of ideating topics to research in zero gravity, pitching that idea multiple times to different audiences, working with the company to build the research project, watching the launch live from NASA and reporting out the results at a conference was invaluable and forever altered the trajectory of my daughter’s life! The SpaceX rocket not only lifted off with my daughter’s research experiment but also launched her burning desire to improve humanity through the exploration and understanding of the extraterrestrial." - Parent of team member of NESS, Winning Team of Centarus A Series
