About Our Educational Non-Profit
Did you ever pretend to be an Astronaut? Have you ever imagined you were flying a spaceship with your friends? Johnny Steverson the Founder of the non-profit Fly A Starship dreamed of flying in the stars inspired by NASA’s Space Shuttle program. Watching the Space Shuttle encouraged him to become involved in the aerospace and technical fields.
That is what Fly A Starship is all about. To develop a traveling space flight simulator to engage and inspire students in STEM education with a hands on fully interactive environment that brings back that sense of excitement and inspiration engaging them in team building exercises while learning in an environment that is both fun and educational.
We need something to inspire students like the Space Shuttle Program did and this traveling space simulator will inspire future pilots, astronauts, engineers, and scientists.
