Since
1989, INSPIRE has provided radio receiver kits to over 3,600 students
and other groups within the United States and internationally to make
field observations of VLF signals. The INSPIRE VLF-3 receiver is
designed to receive radio waves in the 0-10 kHz frequency range, which
is audible to the human ear when converted sound waves by either
speakers or headphones. To order an INSPIRE VLF-3 Radio Receiver, CLICK HERE>
To read the Summer 2019 Volume CLICK HERE> If you would like to submit an
article or VLF observations for inclusion in the next issue or would like a hard copy, please

In
honor of INSPIRE’s founder, Dr. Bill Taylor, INSPIRE with its partners
has established this annual scholarship program. STEM
undergraduate/graduate students and high school seniors who are
currently or will be attending a DC college or university are encouraged
to apply. CLICK HERE>
|
| Students
are paired with a mentor at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center to
design and complete a project focused on science and engineering
research. The NASA summer internship is full-time for 10 weeks CLICK HERE>
| | INSPIRE has teamed up with the NASA
Marshall Space Flight Center, the US Space & Rocket Center, and
Washington Space Business Roundtable to offer DC educators and
administrators full scholarships to Space Academy for Educators, which
consists of a 5-day program for teachers from around the world to
participate in 45 hours of intensive classroom, laboratory and training
time, focusing on space science exploration. Scholarships for Middle and
High School students are also available. Travel expenses included. CLICK HERE>

Co-founded in 1989 by Dr. William W.L. Taylor, former Chief Scientist for Space Station Freedom at NASA headquarters and a pioneer in science education and public outreach, The INSPIRE Project provides creative hands-on opportunities for students of all ages to observe Very Low Frequency waves (i.e. lightning and other atmospheric sounds) by using the INSPIRE VLF-3 Natural Radio Sound Receiver. In addition to coordinated field observations, INSPIRE partners with NASA to give science workshops at local high schools and universities in Washington, DC. INSPIRE students receive hands-on, real world experience and a higher degree of learning in the fields of physical sciences. INSPIRE also seeks to enhance educators in their knowledge in the field of space science to encourage our next generation of scientists.
