Jennings visited the school to share the new vision for space exploration with the next generation of explorers. Whitlow and Melvin accompanied him and talked with students about our destiny as explorers, NASAs stepping stone approach to exploring Earth, the Moon, Mars and beyond, how space impacts our lives, and how people and machines rely on each other in space.
