The first event conducted by IgnitedThinkers was in Vizag, India at Sherlie's Home. Using Estes model rockets and motors, the kids learned about the importance of aerodynamic principles and the basics of rocketry. Over 60 kids were able to see the launching of rockets and learn about the basics of physics in model rocketry. It was an amazing experience, and all the kids thoroughly enjoyed the workshop. Gitika Gorthi and Dr. Scribner are planning to conduct another workshop in the future to get these kids into space careers and to further the kids' understanding of rocketry in the future. IgnitedThinkers provided resources for kids to continue in model rocketry and space education, as well as giving awareness to these kids on how to get into the space industry.

This event was a proof of concept of future workshops IgnitedThinkers plans to host, and paves a pathway for future workshops for kids of all ages around the world.

IgnitedThinkers
Let's create equal opportunities together
SPACE EDUCATION FOR ALL
Let's create more rocketeers together!
What We Do
Ignite Change, Educate, & Inspire
IgnitedThinkers conducts free workshops and webinars internationally on various space education topics (like model rocketry), increasing awareness on space topics, space careers, and free resources.
To break stereotypes and equip students with the confidence to pursue a career in the space industry, IgnitedThinkers has a youtube channel to showcase diverse space champions and their diverse space careers to encourage the future rocketeers.
Students around the world are passionate about space, but due to a lack of awareness, students do not know how to move forward with their goals. We are working with many counties, like Fairfax County Public Schools, to incorporate space education activities as apart of learning various state education requirements.

Many organizations and respectable individuals in the space industry support IgnitedThinkers and the non-profit's initiatives. Click the button below to learn more about current supporters and collaborators.
Bringing opportunity is vital; however, providing a method of continuity is even more imperative to a student's success in the space industry. IgnitedThinkers provides students documents with free resources they can read to learn more!
Apart from working with students who IgnitedThinkers was able to reach out to, IgnitedThinkers continuously tries to reach out to diverse areas with less exposure to STEAM activities, such as Title 1 schools and rural areas.
