2016 Galaxy Ball

2016
We are incredibly proud of the hard work and dedication within the STEM community: teachers, parents, and industry innovators creatively provide funding and resources to expand the minds of our youth, and encouraging space education and innovation. Every year the Galaxy Ball hosts rocket scientists, astronauts, defense and government employees; all committed to advancing space education over cosmic cocktails, dinner, and dancing! We also feature an exciting Silent Auction and Raffle throughout the night. After dinner, the Awards Ceremony reminds us of the importance of fostering the interest and excitement in space, recognizes contributors to the fields of space education and leadership, and honors our outstanding Explorers, Mission Team Leaders, and volunteers.
The Galaxy Ball is also our biggest fundraising event of the year: funds raised at the gala enable the continuation of the Galaxy Explorers’ mission for the following school year. Without your support, we would be unable to provide fun, affordable, STEM education to the growing Explorers’ community! It is with your help we create a scientifically literate population, prepare our youth for the expanding demand in STEM-related careers, and allow children to chase their dreams into the next galaxy.
