Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Piper

    Our kids did a fantastic job of interacting with the many astronomers and educators that came to see our poster. They were poised and knowledgeable and handled questions with ease. I heard many compliments not only about the students explanation of our work, but also about the great job they did constructing their poster.

  • Robert

    Astronomers, all of whom are scientists, can be personal, funny, and outright social beings.

  • Keeton

    This year [at the AAS] was so much different than last year [because of] having a poster to share with others!
