STEAMSPACE™ is dedicated to opening the space frontier, in our lifetimes, to everyone. Beyond the boundaries of race, gender, ideological and socioeconomic difference, STEAMSPACE Education Outreach™ believes in opening this new path to any and all who would like to go. In order to be prepared for the world of free space and settlement, the human race must consider what to do once the traveling is over and we have arrived.
Our Cities in Space Micro Competition provides a challenging opportunity for young minds to explore all aspects of colony design and development while also learning leadership skills that support collaboration, presentation, and empathy promoting our collective future in space.
Space settlement on other planets, the Moon, and in free space will require a broad array of skills and resources but eventually, humans will be born in these colonies and the human race will thrive and multiply in new environments alive with broader cultures, science, and ideologies than seen here on Earth.
In support of STEAM ( Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) Education and Project Based Learning, the Micro Cities in Space® Challenge is aimed at creating a structure that can enable the human race to survive and thrive into a new civilization in space. As a supporter of Project Based Learning and Social and Emotional Learning, we celebrate diversity and encourage teams to fully explore their choice for presentation topic. Focusing on culture and ideology, preservation of history, architecture or the pursuit of the arts for a thriving colony are completely acceptable topics.
The mission of Enterprise In Space (EIS) is to motivate students everywhere to reach for the stars.
