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.

Space Champions Interview Series
It is hard to believe a saying or belief when you just hear it; it is easier to trust something when one shares their story conveying the same message. Live examples provide hope and possibility! IgnitedThinkers started a Youtube series on the IgnitedThinkers youtube channel: Space Champion Interview Series. Through this series, IgnitedThinkers wants to showcase diverse space champions and their stories into the space industry to illustrate to everyone that there is not a specific person that is fit for space, but EVERY SINGLE PERSON can be apart of space endeavors.
Conducting interviews with NASA scientists, college professors, and organization leaders, IgnitedThinkers and Gitika Gorthi hope to be able to convey one simple message: Space is for ALL.
