We just returned from the USA Science & Engineering Festival in Washington, DC! What a blast! The Science Cheerleaders performed science themed routines, led Science Cheers, talked about their careers as cheerleaders and scientists/engineers AND engaged people in citizen science projects with SciStarter! They even kicked off their new project: NASA’s Asteroid Initiative.
Here are some fun pictures from the event. If you have some, please post them on our Facebook fan page or share them on Twitter using the #scicheer hashtag.
Cheers,
Bart Leahy
