Inna Shapovalenko and Alexa Matson's collaborative journey with the STELLA project showcases how open-source engineering provides students with real-world skills through hardware design, software development, and community-driven innovation.

Dr. Gerald Knezek and Dr. Fred McMahan share their experiences developing and implementing Helio-STELLA, a low-cost solar monitoring device designed for educational settings.

The culmination of Bianca's calibration work may be a research paper that establishes STELLA's credibility as a scientific instrument rather than just an educational tool.

Pat's extensive background in heliophysics and imaging spectrographs provided the perfect foundation for Helio-STELLA's development.

Elana Resnick brought something uniquely valuable to STELLA – the perspective of both a classroom teacher and university lecturer with deep expertise in physics, engineering, and robotics education.

Lynn Nichols now PK-12 Director of Education Technology at Gilman, showcases how NASA's STELLA technology is building critical 21st-century skills and preparing students for STEM careers.
