Ambassador Program
Become an Ambassador and join a national network of teachers connected by the cosmos!
Do you love astronomy? Are you passionate about sharing space science with others? We’d love to have you join our first cohort of Ambassadors.
​
Ambassadors are educators and science enthusiasts who help spread the word about Discover the Universe. They play a vital role in building awareness of our programming, promoting astronomy education in their communities, and helping us improve our resources through thoughtful feedback.
​
This is a flexible, volunteer-based role—designed to fit alongside your existing commitments. Whether you’re a classroom teacher, an educator, or someone who works directly with youth, this program is an opportunity to connect, contribute, and grow.

-
Promote astronomy education
Share our social media posts, talk about Discover the Universe at staff meetings, promote events, and introduce your colleagues or community to our free resources.​
​

Provide Feedback
Participate in regular check-ins and help shape future resources by sharing what’s working (or not!) in your classroom or educational setting.
