Fourth-grade students from Jackson Avenue School in the Mineola Union Free School District were selected to participate in the Orion Project with the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City.
As part of the visit, students were supposed to watch the Orion launch, but due to wind conditions the launch was delayed. Instead, students participated in is an artifact box hunt and space jeopardy, and listened to a NASA Solar System Ambassador speak about space travel and the upcoming missions of NASA.
