More news from our good friends at Dream Flight Adventures with simulators in Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., and Venezuela. We start with a new introductory video for their Maelstrom mission followed by a description of the mission's briefing.
Dream Flight Adventures' founder, Gary Gardiner, got bitten with by the simulator based experiential learning bug after spending time at the Space Center aboard the USS Voyager. That inspiration led to a desire to found a company to recreate that experience with a strong STEM focus to students worldwide. Dream Flight Adventures is the result.
Gary and team are doing amazing work. What you'll see below is just a small example.

Dream Flight Adventures' A New Mission Trailer for Dream Flight Adventures Maelstrom Mission
Maelstrom Summary:
Time is up! Peponi is a bustling city-state on a beautiful island. For centuries it has been a center of commerce, trade, and cultural exchange—but there’s a problem. Peponi sits atop a volcanic island that has lied dormant for centuries but has recently become active. With no way to stop the eruption, Peponi officials have rushed to create an evacuation plan. Peponi’s engineers have devised a brilliant system of booster rockets that will pick up the entire city and transport it over the ocean to a new location. Their scouts have been searching for a suitable location, but unfortunately time has run out —the volcano is about to erupt and Peponi must move now!
Dream Flight Adventures: IKS Highlander Completes Another Rousing Round of Contaminant
Attention: 8th Grade Science Students at J.E. Harrison Middle School have completed the Contaminant Mission and Mission Ops Experience. This Mission connected to their Unit on Human Impacts on Earth Systems. Students worked to solve the mystery surrounding a river system and the polluted waters impact on the environment.
During their Mission Ops Experience they learned Sustainability via Aquaponics… using Fish to grow food! As well as designing and engineering residential Rain Barrels.
Take a few minutes to see how it all played out.
