STUDENT PROGRAMS
LSI offers unique K-12 programs designed to educate and inspire students in the pursuit of enabling human exploration of the stars.
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The Limitless Education Lab Booster is designed to help educators and educational organizations, both in the United States and internationally, acquire additional resources to support student learning in STEAM.
Educators that are recipients of a Lab Booster grant clearly communicate their pursuit of innovative methods that will inspire and educate the next generation of explorers.
The Limitless Space Institute will designate Stage I Lab Booster awards that can range from $500 to $5,000 depending on the need and scope of the proposal.
Note: The Lab Booster grant program is currently closed at this time. Please check back regularly for the next application opportunity.
