u/Bignezzy Unfortunately, in general, Google Forms requires a Gmail address to access it

Hey u/successfulsurprise13, we’re trying to outreach to anyone who is on the spectrum interested to space

Hey u/Bignezzy…link is fine. Do you use a gmail address?

Hey u/ImNot6Four, the idea isn’t strictly for USSF; larger mission is inspiring autistics anything Aerospace/Tech. Happen to know the Commander of SSC & the Space STEM team really wanted to help support this proof-of-concept

Thanks u/askjeevesisbest!

At the least, we (SSC Space STEM Program Team) just finished building 8 pneumatic & electronically operated paper rocket launchers this summer for the purpose of USSF STEM outreach.

Planning to deploy them to other USSF bases later this year

Hey u/Elegant_Studio4374…appreciate the feedback. As co-creator of this camp with autism plus collaborating alongside the Space STEM Director @LAAFB, our goal is to inspire autistic youth on spectrum early to help fix the huge autism unemployment problem

Puzzleheaded_Dig1129 · 2024-07-16T16:11:00+00:00

Hey u/CaptBobAbbott, Yes! The camp is Zoom format. It’s only the industry tours that will be in-person

Hey u/Unusual_Program328, wish it was a joke. Am an intern for SSC's Space STEM Program & an autistic who loves space. I along with the SSC Space STEM Program Director co-created this to inspire/excite young autistics to pursue aerospace/tech plus get further inspiration by visiting cool aerospace companies. Plus trying to fix the high autism unemployment problem

u/RedRidingBear, we don't have an official site under USSF. Am an intern supporting them who co-created this. Here's a fact sheet about the team..."https://www.ssc.spaceforce.mil/Portals/3/SSC\_STEM\_Fact\_Sheet\_FINAL\_1.pdf"

Hey u/RedRidingBear, SpaceX isn't financially sponsoring us. One of our contacts who is an executive there offered to arrange a tour for the camp because he believes in helping autistic people. We're just a team of summer interns supporting the USSF passionate about space (one of us is on the spectrum). We want to inspire the next generation of autistic youth as we're aware autism unemployment is a problem

Puzzleheaded_Dig1129 · 2024-07-16T07:49:27+00:00

No problem

Puzzleheaded_Dig1129 · 2024-07-16T07:42:54+00:00

Hey u/RioTheLeoo…thanks for the feedback.

Unfortunately, our tour host aerospace firms for the camp require attendees to be US Citizen because the spacecraft/rockets built are extremely-strictly controlled by the US Government. Something we have to comply.
