Why S.T.E.A.M. > S.T.E.M.? Because we need more tools in our tool box!🛠️ #STEAM is a much more comprehensive term than #STEM because it allows us to reflect on how creativity can be leveraged as we work towards solving the problems we are facing today. #SpacePrize

Together, let’s: 💞 Actively listen. 💞 Face our Dark Side. 💞 Believe in the impossible. 💞 Use the Force. 💞 Forgive. 💞 Empower. 💞 Have integrity. 💞 And be our best version of us. Happy Valentine’s week, SpaceKinder. We ❤️ sharing Space with you. #Space #Valentine
