The NASA Dryden Flight Research Center supports the Agency's Implementation Plan for Education with education programs for students and educators in the formal and informal educational communities ranging from K-12 to postdoctoral levels. Dryden is also committed to producing original educational materials in-house and by partnerships with the education and research community. The Center's education programs, products, and services strive to inspire interest in mathematics, the sciences, technology, and geography through the example of Dryden's unique aerospace flight research projects.
NASA announced that, in early 2003, efforts will begin to recruit and select K-12 educators to join NASA's Astronaut Corps, supporting the Agency's education mission - "...to inspire the next generation of explorers...as only NASA can."
