Under New Management

A message from Space Florida:
"Space Florida is proud to have run the Planetary Lander Egg-Drop Competition for the past six years and we are transitioning the management to the extremely capable hands of the Florida Afterschool Network (FAN) and the Astronauts Memorial Foundation (AMF). Working with FAN and AMF the competition will continue to grow and offer students greater opportunities in STE[A]M activities!"
