Aerospace outreach programs
AGS provides unique aviation and aerospace education programs for elementary, middle and high school students who are interested in aviation and aerospace.
About The Program
The program provides students with a wide range of aviation career exploration experiences and also focuses on Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).
AGS reach 1,500–2,000 each year. These programs expose students to the following activities:
- Lessons in flight planning, aviation history, and the physics of flight
- Field trips to aviation-related sites
- Instruction on aircraft design and maintenance
- Flight simulations and, in some locations, flights in aircraft
AGS is also launching an entertainment and education program “An Astronomical Evening” which will be held in theatres for adults interested in space exploration and cosmology. This is a public program which will help the humans understand where we are in universe and learn much about astronomical discoveries in a theatrical environment.

Only recently have we begun to understand the scale of it all. The public will discovered things so small (10-42), and expanses so vast (10 30) that researchers need special notation to write the incredible distances and magnitude involved in understanding the universe. This may in one way or another re-think the physics taught in schools at the moment.
