The event will be broadcast live on    NASA Television and the agency's website.  <\/p>\n<p>    Media interested in covering the event should contact Ellie    Rodgers at 208-426-5738 <a href=\"mailto:orellierodgers@boisestate.edu\">orellierodgers@boisestate.edu<\/a>.    Boise State University is located at 1910 University Drive in    Boise.  <\/p>\n<p>    Former NASA astronaut Barbara Morgan, who flew on space shuttle    Endeavour's STS-118 mission in 2007 and currently is an    educator-in-residence at the university, also will participate    in Tuesday's event, which focuses on living and working in    space.  <\/p>\n<p>    Educators have been preparing their students for the    conversation with the crew by incorporating NASA activities in    their classrooms. A group of Boise State students working on    this event have dubbed themselves the \"Space Broncos\" and are    working on maintaining a social media site and developing    educational demonstrations for Swanson, who has been named a    \"Professor of Practice\" by Boise State, to perform in    orbit.  <\/p>\n<p>    This in-flight education downlink is one in a series designed    to improve teaching and learning science, technology,    engineering and mathematics (STEM). It is an integral component    of NASA's Teaching From Space education program, which promotes    learning opportunities and builds partnerships with the    education community using the unique environment of space and    NASA's human spaceflight program.  <\/p>\n<p>    For NASA TV streaming video, schedules and downlink    information, visit:  <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"8YW7sDoR9h\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/nasatv\/\">NASA TV Live<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;NASA TV Live&#8221; &#8212; NASA\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/nasatv\/embed\/#?secret=AOOZ0BCI2m#?secret=8YW7sDoR9h\" data-secret=\"8YW7sDoR9h\" width=\"584\" height=\"329\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>  <\/p>\n<p>    For information about NASA's education programs, visit:  <\/p>\n<p>    <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/education\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/education<\/a>  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Continue reading here: <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/spaceref.com\/news\/viewpr.html?pid=43165\/RK=0\/RS=2B_uAqWnp0ePeEHHbPfc9aXZagE-\" title=\"International Space Station Crew to Connect Live with Idaho Students\">International Space Station Crew to Connect Live with Idaho Students<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> NASA astronauts and Expedition 39 Flight Engineers Rick Mastracchio and Steve Swanson, currently orbiting Earth aboard the International Space Station, will speak with students and educators at Boise State University in Boise, Idaho, Tuesday, May 6, at 11:55 a.m. EDT.
