(Boston) – Next week a team of four Boston University Academy (BUA) educators will travel to NASA Johnson Space Center’s Ellington Field in Houston, TX where they will participate in the space agency’s Reduced Gravity Education Program (RGEFP). RGEFP is a program that gives undergraduate students and K – 12 educators the opportunity to propose, build and fly a reduced gravity experiment aboard NASA’s “Weightless Wonder,” a microgravity aircraft that produces a nearly weightless environment similar to space for 18 – 25 seconds at a time by executing a series of parabolas over the Gulf of Mexico.
