One Giant Leap Australia Foundation presents an informative podcast for school students who have their sights set on a career in STEM.
20 SET 2024 · In this episode we speak with Communications and Media Professor, Brian Yecies about how creativity intersects with the space industry.
17 SET 2024 · In this episode, we chat to Anne Bettens from www.denebspace.com.au about satellites.
28 GIU 2024 · Internationally renowned Australian artists, Composer Joe Twist, Lyricist Jodie O’Regan and Berlin based Choir Conductor Christopher Bradley have joined forces to compose “Wattle Sky”, a 15 minute choral piece that celebrates Australia’s national flower. The piece, in three movements, is partly inspired by the revolutionary OGL program that allows school students to study the germination of wattle seeds that have flown in space.
The wattle seeds spent six months aboard the International Space Station before returning to Earth and being distributed to Australian schools. There, they are currently being monitored against Earth based seeds to see how they grow in comparison.
Speaking recently on OGL’s podcast, Jodie O’ Regan said she was inspired to include the unique science experiment when writing the lyrics for the choir after seeing footage of the Dragon capsule returning the seeds to Earth. "When I told (Composer) Joe Twist that wattle seeds had travelled to space he asked me for some words directly from the mission, I therefore used some of the words from mission control for the piece”.

26 APR 2024 · One Giant Leap Australia Foundation, Hylmpulse and Yuri have teamed up to give Australian school students the opportunity to send their very own postcard to space on board a rocket to be launched from South Australia this month!
The postcards will be launched as part of a payload on the inaugural launch of a HyImpulse rocket. European company, HyImpulse are due to launch the SR75 launch vehicle from Southern Launch’s Koonibba Test Range on the 29 April 2024.

20 FEB 2024 · The ELO2 Big Dipper Regolith Acquisition Challenge is your chance to contribute to the design of Australia’s first lunar rover and win a share of $18,000! In this episode we talk to a winner from phase 1 and Education Outreach Coodinator, Lauren Fell from Lunar Outpost Oceania. Find out more at /www.elo2.au/big-dipper-challenge
20 NOV 2023 · The ELO₂ consortium (of which One Giant Leap Australia Foundation is part of) has created a challenge for young students to learn about lunar rovers and what they are used for in anticipation of Australia’s first lunar rover – part of the Australian Space Agency’s Moon to Mars Trailblazer Initiative.
Landing an Australian rover on the lunar surface will highlight the kind of space and STEM endeavours that children can aspire to, creating a ‘where were you’ moment that hasn’t been seen since Australia played a crucial role in helping NASA bring TV images of the first Moonwalk to the world in 1969.
ELO₂ Little Dipper Challenge invites children aged 5-12 years old to experiment with common materials found at home or school in a creative project about space. The mission is to build and test a scoop, like the one that will be on the Australian lunar rover, to collect soil from the Moon.
