Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Keeton

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

  • Johnson

    Real astronomy involves working as a team to find an answer. The NITARP program provides a unique, real-life experience in real astronomy to the teachers and students involved.

  • Mccutcheon

    The NITARP experience was terrific from start to finish – well organized, informative, and unique.
