Raising the next generation of space explorers
GalaxSea Explorers is an organization bringing free space education to underserved youth all over the world for free through camps, kits, digital resources, and educational materials.
Several links/pages on our website are currently still under construction as we transition to this new website. We apologize for the inconvenience.
We're a group that closes local gaps limiting all students from having an equal-access opportunity to explore space.
GalaxSea Research
Space is a subject that NGSS standards and school district curriculum need significant data/research in the pursuit to optimize its format for students. GalaxSea Explorers is committed to making all of our program insights/data publicly available for educators.
GalaxSea Community
Through public edu-policy advocacy and extensive discussions with legislators and curriculum designers, GalaxSea Explorers is involved in the fight for increased exposure to space in classrooms, providing a platform for underprivileged communities to speak about their experiences regarding the financial and racial disparity.

Did you know...?
In the U.S., ​less than 11% of middle and high schools offer a space focused curriculum.
Despite its increasing popularity in the U.S., it is becoming harder for students to come across the topic and find that "spark", especially in financially and racially underserved communities.
​
Passionate minds are forced to spend hundreds, sometimes even thousands, of dollars on external educational sources, or give up their intellectual pursuit altogether. GalaxSea Explorers aspires to change that.​
DEI: Changing the Faces of Space
More than 60% of GalaxSea Explorers participants are female or nonbinary students.
​
56% of GalaxSea Explorers students come from underrepresented ethnic backgrounds, including Black, Hispanic, Indigenous, and other minority communities.
​
8% of our students attend Title 1 schools, and many, many more come from financially challenged families.
​
In each of our subprograms, a major focus is working together in diverse teams, understanding differences, and being able to effectively utilize backgrounds with a belief that anyone and everyone can succeed.
