Bees in
Space is a community and schools based three-year project to launch stingless bees to the International Space Station and eventually to
Mars, as part of the long term space program of the European Space
Agency and NASA.
Experts
in space technology, biology and education have designed the project,
but many of the decisions about the direction of the project and the experiments
themselves will be made by primary and secondary students from
across Australia and the world.
The project is a collaboration between Australian
Government and non-Government institutions, with the support and
cooperation space agencies, universities and private companies
around the globe.
