Hosted by Academy at the Farm, a local charter school, the event aims to inspire students by linking classroom learning to real-world space exploration. The school has invited students and their families to participate in the event, which will feature Ayers responding to pre-recorded questions submitted by students. Media interested in attending the event in person must RSVP by Wednesday, April 9.
Ayers currently serves as the pilot for NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 mission. The event underscores NASA’s ongoing efforts to engage the public, particularly young students, with the agency’s work aboard the space station. For more than two decades, astronauts have conducted scientific research, tested technology, and refined skills needed for future missions beyond Earth’s orbit.

In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
The live space-to-Earth call is part of NASA’s broader educational outreach initiatives under the Artemis campaign, which is preparing to send astronauts to the Moon as a stepping stone for future exploration of Mars. The mission, and events like this one, are designed to foster the next generation of explorers and maintain U.S. leadership in space science and innovation. Educational resources, including videos and lesson plans related to space station research, are available through NASA’s official website.
