iLEAD learners Prepare for Launch to Space Station
A team of iLEAD learners is preparing to send a science experiment aboard the SpaceX-16 Falcon 9 rocket to the International Space Station (ISS) scheduled to launch on December 4.
The project is part of a partnership between iLEAD and DreamUp, the leading provider of space-based educational opportunities. The learners’ experiment, which will be on the ISS for approximately four weeks, tests whether black coffee kills a type of bacteria found in everyday plaque on teeth in microgravity in the same way it does on Earth. This launch opportunity is made possible via DreamUp’s partnership with NanoRacks and its Space Act Agreement with NASA.
